I apologize I was trying to search and couldn’t find what I was looking for and I’ve been searching online all day. I need to plumb airlines in my garage and basement, recently purchased a Rigid threader, pipe cutter now I’m in need of a reamer. I came across two options at very, very good prices for what are basically brand new tools. Is there one reamer that may be better than the other in certain situations? Between the straight and spiral pipe reamers, I will be using them manually and not in a powered Ridgid tool. I will be cutting and threading 1/4, 1/2, 3/4 black steel pipe. Can get the straight reamer slightly cheaper but not much, both sub $100 why I’m rushing to get the info. I was curious if the straight pipe at the 1/8 starting point may clean burrs better than the spiral starting in the 1/4 pipe for my 1/4 pipe? Normally I would just use a file but the deal I found I just can’t say no. Thank you!
