[TowerTalk] Recommendation for heat gun for shrink wrap

I also use a variable Wagner and it has done a excellent job on small shrink 
wrap but a not so perfect on large wrap.  The heat does not flow evenly 
around large wrap to shrink everything uniformly.  I once had a chance to 
use a lab heat gun with a heat shrink adapter which cups the shrink and 
traps the heat.  Absolutely perfect shrink.  The Wagner looks like it can 
take an adaptor but a brief look on their web site did not reveal one.  You 
can probably make something with tin snips and a small piece of aluminum or 
a tin can.
