Great entry-level crimping tool

The great thing about this tool is that it works. It comes with a decent pex cutter and a couple of staples. A crimping tool isn't the best choice, but if you're making less than half a dozen (aka six, SIX, as in 6 I say!) then it's great for all needs. Note that the tool requires you to use two hands (or a very large hand, such as a fiddler crab) to tighten the clamp. This will be a problem when space is limited and also for those trying to line up the crimp in exactly the right place. You will encounter difficulty crimping a tee if you try under a house or in a wall. So be smart and do most of the crimping where you can lay out the loop on the ground or on the job site. a quick DIY or handy tool, this is a great tool. But if you want to take it to the "next level," look for another ratchet crimping tool that's designed for one-handed use. Pipe cutter and crimp. only good.
