It could be funny to use such parts and manufacture your own tool using an arduino or a jaluino, so I hit both kind of hobby module lovers...:). See here (3 euro): http://www.tehnoelectric.ro/home.html?page=shop.product_details&flypage=flypage.tpl&product_id=11606&category_id=95 However a chinese hot air station can be bought for about $50-60, there are combined desoldering/soldering versions with soldering iron included, some of them have also a 0-12V/1A power supply. http://www.sw-box.com/Best-858d-Rework-Desoldering-Station-Hot-Air-Tool.html I think all hobby guy with an income of about 2000-3000 euro/month or more can afford such thing...
