[QUOTE="john998, post: 593, member: 289"] [b]Flange tool[/b] Hello, A simple tool can be made from a piece of mild steel about 3" square and about 1" thick. Bore a hole in the centre the same size as the OD of the pipes. A light chamfer on one side of the hole is a good idea. Cut through the centre of the hole with a hack saw. The pipe to be flanged is clamped in the hole ( with the tool in a vice, or you can put studs through it) with just sufficient sticking through the side with the chamfer you form the flange with a light hammer. The hard part is deciding where the flange should be. It is much easier if you drill the block for studs. Hope this makes sense, as my tool is not to hand, as captain Vincent has it. [/QUOTE]
