Yeah it's called a "reflowster". Check out their kickstarter.  It controls a toaster oven.  Pretty nice.

Cool, I shall check it out. I'm currently using a hot air soldering method, but when I do board batches I think I may need to try something else.

That reflowster looks great.  I am using a electric skillet as a "reflow skillet" and I get superb results recently.  I love the stencil you made.  You can shrink the stencil outline in a graphics program or if you have diptrace there is a solder paste shrink option.

I just received some Kapton which I am going to try and laser cut my own stencils for the next SMD project.  The soda can method also looks awesome (as you did).  This is inspiring!
