This is in my top 5 of the best investments I made in buying an automotive tool. I actually look forward to flaring lines now!
View the videos, it works just as easy and quick! Scott, THANK YOU, for this new "tools" section!

Yeah, It's a Hybrid...It burns gas and tires. No matter how good she looks, somebody, somewhere, is tired of her sh*t. Beauty is skin deep, ugliness goes clear to the bone. |

I have heard nothing but incredible reviews of this tool. Next time I get heavy into tubing, I will probably take the plunge myself.
Also of note: There is a 37 degree head available as well for an add-on. Then one can do AN flares. |

Great to hear! Now go to your nearest parts store and get some lengths of various brake and fuel line sizes, you'll be "playing" with this flaring tool for a while after seeing how easy and how perfect each flare is. If possible, give an update afterwards.

Glad to hear it works as advertised, I would have been embarrassed if you received a bad unit, seeing how I praised it so much. You'll run out of tubing long before you run out of smiles.
