Hi all,

Given that it's cheaper to buy a 2kw hairdyer than one of those fancy
heatgun things, what is the prevaling view about the utility of
splashing out on a dedicated heat gun vs. using a hairdryer to shrink
that plastic tubing stuff?

No I tried it and the air flow is too fast so the air isn't hot enough.

Someone above suggested a wind-proof cig lighter which I just happened
to have lying around for no good reason, so I'm using that to good
effect on the toobing. :-)
