A hair dryer will work if you partially restrict the air intake with your hand and cause it to overheat. I've shrunk a lot of tubing that way while installing car stereos. I use shrink tubing instead of crimps on the ends of my brake and shifter cables. I've also had to replace my wife's hair dryer a couple of times after I burned them out. One of these days I'm going to get a real heat gun.
