Wanted to check if anyone on here has a sheet metal crimper I could borrow for a few days. I am working on the duct at my house and I need to crimp some pipe, but dont want to pay for a tool.

I could have it back by Wed or this weekend at the latest.

If ayone has any concerns, I am very carefull and do not abuse tools. If you do not get it back in the same condition you gave it to me in, I will buy you a new one. I don't play games.

Anyone got one?

Eh, I live in Jackson and the tool is in Milwaukee. Probably not worth your drive considering what they cost! But if you want it, i can bring it home tomarrow.

JP.... come on man.

You're telling me that after all those years at FAP, you never got yourself a crimper? LOL

I have one you could use, but like Breecher... I'm way the fuck up here.

I took 2 vacation days this week, but will be back to work Wednesday. I commute to Oak Creek for now, so how does that play into your location/schedule?

Good call on the Harbor Freight!! I think that would be the best way to go.

I dont mind spending $20, but I know good ones cost a lot more than that.

You forget I was the delivery bitch!! I never did any installing until I bought this place and I started over.

Although I have been buying all the duct, fittings and registers from there. Its a good feeling going in there and not having to work, but I was having flashbacks!!

I should have loaded up on tools before I quit, but never thought I would be replacing all this duct!!

Although I did load up on damn near a lifetime supply of Sawzall blades!!!

Just buy the tool bud :thumbsup

I have about $4k in HVAC tools and I don't borrow them because I have about $100 in lost aka borrowed tools.

Menards has decent ones :thumbsup
