I am looking at buying some manual Ridgid RMC threading tools for a couple of home projects using 1/2", 3/4" and 1" RMC. I am not working at a shop right now where using their tools is an option. After shopping around a bit I found that by far my cheapest option is to pick up a decent used Ridgid 31-A, which is the three way cutting head that has all three dies. It is non-ratcheting, uses 12-R teeth, and is still sold new.
I've installed a lot of RMC but never used one of these before and am just curious if anyone has and has any insights as to any draw backs or plusses?
And in case anyone is wondering, this is for a nautical themed coastal vacation rental and I want to run 3/4" RMC in a large enclosed deck area for the switches/lighting as well as construct a massive dining table with an RMC base for out there . We may find some other creative furniture ideas as well if I have a threader available to use.
