Surprising to read the consistent success rates with people not using bench cappers.
However I'll always use one if I'm using cap-bottles as I can borrow my neighbours at any time I need it But I've seen them sold for around $50 at K-Mart (Brigalow brand?) and also for around the same at Absolute HB if I recall. It's a very small investment that pays for itself after only one brew, that is if you are having breakage troubles with your present device.
You could go one step further and start collecting swing-tops, eventually you'll never have to use a capper again. I presently have enough of these babies for around two brews, and it's a breeze when bottling day arrives.
