Got a guy here looking for what is apparently an extinct plumbing
tool. Anybody got  any ideas who might sell them or otherwisewhere to
find one?

Anyone with a plumber in the ancestry? A fellow Scadian is looking for
a specific type of plumber's tool last seen in his fathers kit in the
'60s. The drain pipes that attach to the bottom of a sink did not come
with premade flanges at the time. The desired tool was used to make
the flange, a flaring tool for 1.5" pipes. The description of use
sounds like using a can opener, attach at the end of the tube, as the
tool works around the tube a flange is formed. I had never before
heard of this tool and his brothers claim ignorance of its location.
Looking for help.
Thanks,
CV
