> 24 hourThis is a very sturdy device . I use it to make the little ridges in my copper designs for jewelry. It is easy to slide the copper into. It hasn’t caused me any hand fatigue while turning the copper into the zig zag look. I’m sure it will last for years to come it is made so hardy. I have found I use this great gadget for things I never thought of before. I highly recommend this.

> 24 hourI received one of these heavy duty tube wringers as an art supply tool about 20 years ago and it has quickly found uses all over the house beyond its original art duties. I use it for paint tubes, toothpaste, various medicinal tubes, glues, wasabi - anything in a tube, really. The tube wringer is simple to use and is the most effective way Ive used of squeezing every last drop out of a tube - especially when compared to those little plastic paint tube keys. The wringer not only flattens but crimps the tube which helps to prevent squeezed material from spreading back out into the body of the tube, especially in metal tubes (not so much in stiffer plastic like wasabi comes in). It is so satisfying to use that when I pull it out to wring some tubes, I find myself drifting around the house looking for more tubes to wring. ;) I recommend the wringer with the metal rollers. Models with plastic rollers exist but they only save you a couple of bucks and Id imagine would have a shorter life span. I mostly do my painting during winter but my tube wringer gets plenty of use on toothpaste tubes during summer making it a welcome addition to the household.

> 24 hourI lived in Springfield, Oregon and worked in Eugne from 1972 until 1976. During this period I acquired a Gill Tube Wringer. I have used it regularly for all these years and can truthfully say that it works every bit as good today as the day I got it. You just wont believe how well it works until you try it. This is a piece of precision machine work which will last a lifetime in normal use. It is worth every penny you pay for it.

> 24 hourThe tube-wringer I received is manufactured in the USA by Gill Mechanical Company in Eugene, OR. Its a well-made, sturdy product that does exactly what its supposed to do. I bought it for tubes of paint, but it works on other metal and plastic tubes as well. I recommend it highly. The URL on the product is [...] I dont know if you will get the same product when you order or if they ship whatever they have on hand. You might want to check first.

> 24 hourThis absolutely EXTRACTS every last drop from tubes of hair care products. I use a thick hair mud mask in a metal tube that’s like $34! I put the tube through this and got out almost another entire application! This too will absolutely pay for itself this year. It’s the best thing ever invented, and should be used by every hair care girlie. I’m going to do a social media review on my hair growth channel! Can’t wait!!

> 24 hourIt was not what I expected at all. It did not have a tight grasp. I was very disappointed. It had a short return date and and now I am stuck with a product I am not satisfied with. It did not meet my expectations at all!

> 24 hourThis is a super heavy duty tool that will crimp your oil paint tubes or toothpaste tubes, or any other tubes so tightly that you can even cut off the long end of the tube that is empty. The big plus that this crimper has over the plastic-handled model that sells for half the price is that you cant pinch your hand when you squash down on the handle. So I think its worth the extra money.

> 24 hourI really dont take any pleasure in writing bad reviews, I put a lot of faith into product reviews. Although I did not order my item from Amazon, to be truthful I cant remember where exactly I ordered it from, Dickblick, Cheep Joes, or Artist Supply but some products are like bad equity; some poor sucker needs to buy it. My estimation is that this is the exact same product, aluminum rollers, aluminum painted frame that bends, barely holds the tube while rolling- and slips; not to mention after pulling the tube manually through the rollers while applying pressure, the pins that hold the rollers fall out. In no way is this item Heavy Duty. Dont buy plasic, dont buy aluminum, make sure the frame is steel or brass or for gods sakes bronze. Ill give it 2 stars because its worth the purchase if you lower the price enough.(groan>>> try these:
