Bought a knockoff tube expander from a tool truck in Toledo, big mistake
It was a third of the price of a proper Elliott, so I thought I was saving cash. The mandrel snapped on the third tube, and I had to buy a new one anyway, plus I lost half a day's pay. Anyone know a good supplier for the real deal around here?

Ugh, been there. Grabbed a cheap flaring tool from a flea market once. The split die cracked on the first line, ruined the flare. Had to redo the whole run. Those knockoffs are just shiny paperweights. Never again.

Didn't some guy online test those and they all failed?
