I'm looking for a good hose crimper. We had one back home that went in the shop press. Weather head makes a $1200 set like that.
I've seen used machines on Craigslist/eBay for $750-1500 with dies.
Are there any that are best, or ones to stay away from? I prefer to stay around $1000-1500.
Yes, I know you can get them made, but I'm looking at a good 40 hoses on the one Bolens alone, not counting the backhoe I would like to make for it. Many are different end to end, so ready made won't work, and it would be a pain to get that many hoses custom made.
