Surface Mounting Components.

If anyone is interested in surface mounting components...

I needed a Hot Air Pencil to do some surface mount work, but did not
like the price of commercial units ( I'm just cheap that way !)
So I made one... It's described at my web site...

I was surprised how easy and cheap it was to make it, and how well it
works... The cheapest commercial unit I found was about $600 this home
made unit cost all of $45...!
