I have a question for everyone, how do you shrink your heat shrink tubing?
I have always used a lighter to shrink them as usually i am doing only a few at a time, but have seen some videos lately where people have used a Hot Air Rework station.
The one that one video recommended is the 858D+ Unit. Like this one on Ebay

For $60.00 shipped to your door it looks like a great deal and would probably be more handy then just a hand held hot air gun, and if you ever do any SMD work, you have it already.
Curious what others thought and what you are using.
Thanks
Ken
