Now that you have seen this, please stop recommending someone buy a worthless gimmick tool without cautioning them of the hazards of such a repair. You are welcome to link my video in doing so, please! Or, just stop recommending the tool altogether. There are many other tools that someone can better spend money on, all while BUTT welding the seam with much better results.
I was just going to post this!

MP&C, I think the same way every time someone mentions POO15.

You can't have "cheap" and "good". Only pick one. If you want to be "cheap" and don't need to own a welder, pay someone to make a "good" repair.
