I got lucky as the length of pre-made "bubble flare" tubing I bought was the perfect size once bent to shape. Had that not happened I would have had to buy the tool for making the "bubble flares". Anyone have to make the "bubble flares" yet with the new tool?

You can make a bubble flare that won't leak using a standard double flaring tool. Look it up on you tube. Just one step of the double flare is used.
