Nut-sert tools

Anyone have a line on an inexpensive nut-sert installtion tool.
I would like to be able to install 10 and 12mm nut-serts for installing skid plates, etc. I can find them in the McMaster-Carr catalogue but they are way too expensive.
 
Thanks for the replies. Is this a great forum or what?

I have a plier-type nutsert tool but it only goes up 1/4-20. I do not think I have to hand strength to set a larger nutsert, at least with the pliers. The big installers have long handles for more leverage and they also cost several hundred dollars
The installer form Wicks Aircraft is just the thing I was looking for. I only need to install a few of them here and there but I wanted a decent size bolt. The 3/8' model is perfect for the Cherokee. For six dollars, how can you go wrong? I can afford two or three sizes.
