Well I have seen questions about air hose fittings so this is not but so OT. I bought a set of freeze proof faucets and they came supplied with PEX A fittings. I don't know squat about PEX because I have been using copper for the last fifty years. I bought a cheap set of PEX crimpers thinking I would go with the flow and probably use them someday. Come to find out there are three kinds of PEX and what I need is the type that uses an expansion tool, which I refuse to buy since I will never use it again. My question is this. Has anyone else run into this and found a workaround for not having the expansion tool. No place I checked rents it although they do rent the compression type (which I now own but is useless in this case). Thanks very much.
