You can do as you like, i do things for the benefit of the forum, and my own self worth, One of the best things in life is doing things your own way.

This is not for ever one, This was added for some of the members that like to make there own Mod's, after all this is the DIY threads.

Thank you sir,

By the way after i did all the leg work there is only $60 in parts and 3 Hr of my time, its always the first time that takes the longest.

Buying from a manufacturer is cheap, making it your self is priceless.

Stop being a jerk!

Nice write up 2SSRS as always!!

Might try this one myself. I'm thinking a heat gun might work instead of the toaster oven. Who knows...

It's possible. Depends on what heat gun you use. The ones we have here at work go up to 1000*F which is well above the 400*F required

Seriously? Is it a hand held heat gun? I can't imagine the gloves needed to hold that thing.
