just interested in how people do their rolls of copper tube
I unroll mine on the floor steady it with my feet and try to let the weight of the roll straighten it I was just wondering if theirs a better way
 
You can get a tool it's got rollers on it they do a good job don't know where to buy them from a
rep gave me one some years ago.Bob
 
Once caught an instrument technician (well that's what he was calling himself) straightening 1/4" copper tubing, in the days of 3-15psi controls, using a turfor chain block to stretch out the kinks. What started life as non-straight 1/4" tube ended up as dead straight copper scrap !!
 
I’ve used a length of 15mm as a guide/former before... push the 10 into the 15 as you unroll it... works pretty well for me :)
