Brass flange inserter tool

[Diane Hofstetter]

Paul,

  I just finally read about this tool, (hoping Clyde sent in one of his 
priceless posts!)  I have one you can have if you still need one, let me 
know if you want it and your address so I can mail it to you.
  Diane

If I can ever find the one I have, I'll be glad to let you know; I never 
liked it.
But a quick search failed to turn it up.  Sorry.
