this is an elusive tool....I recently purchased a new home (used) and I
have to redo ALL the plumbing and was contemplating using pvc/or
whatever it is called these days (flexable hose) anyway I have been
told that this is something you can rent but have never inquired at the
rental yards. I have a friend that is a plumbing contractor and they
use this product as well as copper so if I decide I may just borrow it.
The first thing I would do is call up a reputabe plumbing contractor
and simply ask them if they know where you can get one.
Good luck
