Who makes a nice hose crimping tool? I am wasting to much time running around having hoses made..

About $10k. I am looking for one, because I go through hose like no other, as in, hundreds of feet a month. I am thinking that it might save me some money if I went that route.

Parker mini crimp model 50070964670897 I paid less than 2k for mine new 3/8" thru 1" dies
Gates Mobile Crimp 4-20 here Mounted in the work truck, along with a large selection of fittings (JIC, Pipe, Flat face oring, ORB, BSF) with dies up to 1/2" Larger hoses we go to our local Hydraulic shop.
Its a decent crimper. The only downside is its 50 odd pounds and it can be a pain to lug up on a machine for a repair and also keeping it in place. (this being said as I work on Genie booms, JCB reach forklifts etc...)
