Paul
the tool that Simon has offered you is a good buy. It is as good as a cfr. I have used the two side by side and there is no noticable difference in perfomance or drying. The tool is probably one of the best tools on the market for doing piping.
It is not in the same league as a drimaster or sapphire, but is a good tool and for what Simon is asking is a good investment and lighter than a cfr. Cfr s are good tools but it will ultimately be what you get used to using and feel comfortable with. I do find the cfr heavy and cumbersome in comparrison. I use a drimaster but do sometimes use the other tool.
