<DIV>Hi Rob,</DIV>
<DIV>Ryobi makes a small one for about $20.</DIV>
<DIV>It is used in crafts as a shrinker for plastic film. It is about 1 1/2
times the size of a Dremel tool.</DIV>
<DIV>My shop is in it's usual disorganized state, so I can't find it to get the
model #, as I am just going out the door. If you can't find out what it is, let
me know, and I will find it tonight.</DIV>
<DIV>Regards,</DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>My ungar heat gun died. Does anyone have a
suggestion for a more affordable alternative than the expensive Ungar model
that the piano supply companies sell? The criteria, (like the Ungar), is
a long and narrow focused outlet. Sufficiently hot but so much that it
can melt rocks. Most anything else commercially available has a short
and wide outlet, pretty useless for piano work. The flip side of this is
does anyone have a good used Ungar gun they would care to sell
reasonably? There were a couple on e-bay a while back and I stupidly
didn't go for it. I keep checking back but there hasn't been any
others.</FONT></DIV>
