I got a heat gun that goes up to 650 deg. Celcius. I'm not sure how useful it is for spudding apart from shaping plastic pipe. Great for desoldering though

my god that must make molten puddles of lead all over.... with electrical components falling out all over the place.
Also, as a christmas gift to me, I went to the surplus store I found... And bought so much pneumatic and electronic parts that even at surplus, and 1 - 2 dollars a peice, It added up to about 60 bucks.........
but my god... I couldnt resist the bags of banjo fittings! and the GIANT pneumatic cylinders! (3/4 - 3in bore!) and the HUGEEEE air chambers "rated" for 100 PSI. HA. id put a hybrid in one of those bad boys.
That and I bought a 40 year old Oscilloscope....... might be why it added up to 60 bucks...........
