Sooooo, (hopefully) I'll be needing to make new brake and clutch lines soon for the hot rod Mini, I saw this tool on sale on Amazon for way money off, so I bit. It gets high recommendations from the guys on Grass Roots Motorsports and the Garage Journal....

It has fittings for the common 3/16" brake and clutch lines as well as 1/4, 5/16 and 3/8 so I can make fuel lines too.

It will make single flares, double and bubble flares, I don't know about double bubble.....

First job will be to make a remote bleed line for the clutch on Don's Midget.

I wonder how many perfectly formed, beautiful flares I'll make before I remember to put the nut on first?
Complete failure at retirement - but getting better!
