I am looking to see if anyone has an air crimper.
Not sure the proper name... It is an air tool that creates an offset lip on the edge of sheet metal so it can be used as a "lap" joint? Want the crimp the repair piece and slip it underneath th existing roof sheet metal to make a smooth seam. Anyone help me out... Sure I could go buy one...might still do that, just looking to see if anyone has one they want to sell or willing to send me for a few weeks? |

Thanks! That's it.
Guess I'll make a trip to Topeka and going shopping at Harbor Freight. Will probably pick up an air nibbler too, will make cutting this roof neater and quicker. Zebra3, I'll let you know and we can meet up in Topeka. |
