I'm wondering if anyone is still making 2 handed tubing tools reasonably priced. Also, I can't seem to find the post that has the measurements of a two handed tool in it. Does anyone remember where that's located? Thanks.

Did a quick Advanced Search with "Two handed tool" in Thread Name...narrows it down pretty quickly. I remembered someone making a pretty nice tool - this is what I found:

What size tubing will fit the two handed tool you have for sale?

I have a two handed tool with the tubing cutter I believe it may be from Leader ( reply to DOCSMAPLESYRUP)

5/16" tubing

I believe it could easily be converted to 3/16 just by grinding down the grippers, correct Heus?

Just take a 4 inch or so piece of 5/16, split it lengthways removing about a third of the tubing. Take the larger piece that you just made and clip it over the 3/16 tubbing, clamp your tool on the 5/16 piece and your good to go.

just remember to take your shims with you to the next spot you need to cut in a tee.

I think you may be going the wrong way...5/16 to 3/16 you need to add to the tool

Yes John and Chickenman are correct.
