One comment only - you say to use a purpose made heat gun to shrink the
heat shrink sleeving. These are very expensive and an ordinary hot air
paint stripping type can safely be used - just don't hold it stationary
too close for a long period. A dual heat type on low is the ideal. Hold
about 3 inches from the work and move from end to end until it shrinks.

I did describe both (and I use a flame as well usually - or the
catalytic blow head on my micro torch). I thought I ought to include the
"approved" way as the first option, but you are right they are silly money.
