West Marine carries a flaring tool. Made by Moellar. Cost is $9,99 I found this on line by typing drain tool on google search. List West Marine. Click on West Marine add and you can buy direct for this price. Merry Christmas everybody. :D

Thats for the 1" drain tubes. If you are using the 1 1/4" drain tubes you need the 1 1/4" flanging tool. The ones circulating around here are both sizes.

AA and Fishgitr,
I was away for a few days from the forum and didn't see this updated thread. If Fishgitr needs them now send them to him.

Fishgitr,
If I get em first I'll connect with you and get them to you.

I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas!

Steve
