Screwfix do a very good heat gun for approx £15 - I have one and they
are very good, I just didn't think it would be hot enough. Also I'd
assumed the guns intended for this purpose had a very small nozzle.

Some good stuff on that site. Be interested in your responses. I
was thinking of cutting up an old kettle with a flat bottom heating
plate, run it from low voltage. There might be a mug warmer for
vehicle use. I see there is a USB heater on Ebay. Spec says it
goes to 50-60C which isn't really enough. Don't know about a cheap
heat gun. RS do a shrink heat gun but it's pricey. Hair dryer
might do it.

Has anyone in the UK come across similar items as those on this
page (http://www.zianet.com/erg/SMT_Soldering.html)?
I need to make the K3 mods and was wondering if an investment in a
heat gun would be worthwhile (it's not like SMT is going to go
away!).
