I'm looking for a set of flaring punches and don't want to spend a million bucks. 1" to 3". Any leads? :drink3:

I bought the complete set and am quite happy for the price. I had my own 3" and 6" flanging tools made. I don't like the all in one action. I prefer to cut my own hole first and then flare it. It seems most manufacturers dont bother with the larger sizes past 2.5" on flaring dies.
