    Default Homemade one handed tool

    Hey all,

    Tested out my new one handed tubing tool. Ran around $25 in parts. Used it today to put new tap fittings on existing drops. Worked great.

    Nice job mol1jb!
    Dave Klish, I recently ordered a 2x6 wood fired evaporator from A&A Sheet Metal which I will be converting to oil fired
    Now have solar, 2x6 finish pan, 5 bank 7x7 filter press, large water jacketed bottler, and tankless water heater.
    Recently bought another Gingerich RO, this one was a 125, but a second membrane was added thus is a 250, like I had.
    After running a 2x3, a 2x6, 3x8 tapping from 79 taps up to 1320 all woodfired, now I'm going to a 2x6 oil fired and a 200-425 taps.

    Looks good. A lot easier than using the two handed tool for drop lines and taps.
