we got three places to choose from within 7miles
We've got one place I could almost throw the pipe too they're that close, another couple within 5 mile but none are much use at 4am or Christmas morning

In all fairness they probably would if we were stuck
no but the bale grab and the shear grab both on the same fittings so can normally nick a pipe of one to keep you going

I like screw on fittings. Extra brilliant on Sundays n bank holidays
Yes £20 should about cover my time to put it on a pallet
PM me an offer if you are interested.
Do you know what size dies it currently has in it?

No sorry, had a quick look at them earlier for someone else but couldn't see any markings on them.
Looks like 16s only suit 1/4 hose they're too sharp for doing 3/8th fittings, can crack the ferrules IMO. Don't think they look like 19s

If anybody is interested I have a load of pipes already made up for dear only knows what. pipes from 1ft to 40ft from 1/4 til 1 1/2 had to take them in lieu of a debt.

Not desperate haven’t got a crimper yet, it’s been on the shopping list a few years now. But just been talking to someone that her late husband had one, she’s going too see if she’s still got it and let me know.
so there could be more questions, I know how to use a Gates K2503 but don’t know what this one will be if it’s there !.

I have a trade account with Alfa Goma, not sure if they’ll sell to the public though.
Fittings are peanuts if you buy from the right place, you wouldn’t believe the markup some companies put on them.

I’m not looking a buying a crimper solely for my own use, it’s all part of the transition into more ag engineering/repairs and getting rid of the money losing tractors/contracting !.
