Not seen them for rent.
What size and type cable? The LDF5 and AVA5 strip and prep tools are
different (as are the connectors). Yes, the drill driven tools are
very expensive, but for AVA with its much thinner shield I think the
tools are a big help, almost essential. There are cheaper manual
cutting tools see

or for the LDF series a fine blade hacksaw with the guide packaged with
the connectors works ok. I found several good strip & prep tools on ebay.
I'm still looking for a good amount of LDF5 if anybody has a stash,
minimum 175' lengths. It's out of stock at all surplus dealers I've
checked. I also have 250' of LDF6 and a few connectors for it for sale,
but it needs picked up as the reel is in poor condition.

Does anybody know of a source that will rent out tools for cable assembly
work for Times, Andrew and / or RFS Cable Wave Systems? These tools are
incredibly expensive , but excellent vs. alternatives that I am finding.
But for use only now and then, I can't justify paying those prices, unless
no other source available. Any help with this would be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance
