[sdiy] Hot Air Rework Heat Gun with no base.. Only handpiece.. Any suggestions ?

[Vladimir Pantelic]

that is the same handpiece/heat element that is on cheap chinese hot air 
stations, with the addition of the thermostat added on the end, so 
performance wise it should be the same.

for $48 long term reliability would be the least of my concerns...
