Don't know that it would be worth the $$$, but Eastwood is now selling a
system that should allow you to PC your bench in situ. It appears to
consist of the basic home PC setup, plus a pair of really big heat lamps on
stands, and a non-contact thermometer so you can tell when the heat lamps
have a particular area hot enough to cure. You can then move the lamps to
another area and so on.
I was thinking about supplying my own heat lamps and thermometer, but
haven't had time to look for a non-contact one.
No financial yadda yadda
