    Sue, this is a great topic. Of course I love all tools. However, a
    new one found its way into my toolbox. It came from the plumng
    department at Home Depot. It is a swedge (swage?) tool. It goes from
    3/4" cylinder to 1/8" with many between and has replaced so many of
    my dowel rods. They use it for opening the ends of pipe (I think),
    but I get to use it to get my curves at whatever size I want. Cool
    tool for $6.95.
