i used to use a heat gun for years. i learnt the hard way. its very slow and uses quite a lot of electricity. plus i burnt out 4 heat guns in my time. i have now moved on to a propane blow torch, with the flame turned right down. its pretty much the same as a heat gun but faster and hotter. just keep the flame on low. cheers
Good show 1st time I herd someone say make sure the battery is out before using a heat gun good to know. I liked the comment about the propane torch after a few should work well but keep the flame moving around I say.
I am going to try this. Originally saw this video a little while ago, and decided to give it another look. I thought about using a propane torch, and maybe still will. I wanted to try this today, but there is a difference between 'well-ventilated' and the 40 mph winds we are having. Cheers and Thank you for your interesting videos!

Thanks i will try that way and see hoe it works out
when you first try, you will probably over heat the board. but after some time you get a feel for it. cheers

Great video, I'm going to try this with my heat gun👍
You shouldn't use the heat gun to tap the board while heating it. You can easily break the heating coil while it's hot.
I know I broke my first heat gun that way but can't stop the habit lol
Great work
thanks Daryl
Great video
You lost me at toxic fumes . You do realize that’s a dust cup , not a respirator . Looks like your method works well though .
Just burn the cpu socket. Grind, put in water and pan then pick all the pins up with magnet.
Thanks will do that
@@ScrappingIrish np the pins inside somehow are pretty high grade too
