Enjoying tomorrow's success today
What are you guy's using for flare tools? I've only ever used the bar style, that kind of suck even when new. Which is exactly why I have a leaky fitting on Pigpen lol.
So my options are, as I see them,
1. Go get another bar style, and fiddle around until I get it right. I still have the rear line to make also, so it'll likely wind up in the river before I finish.
2. Go halfway, with something like this, https://www.amazon.com/ATD-Tools-5483-Master-Flaring/dp/B00H2W0ZCW Which it seems should keep the line straight, as long as it holds it well enough to keep it from pushing back.
3. Go full potato, and get this, https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000HHWASQ/ref=ox_sc_act_title_3?ie=UTF8&psc=1&smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER which seems like it probably will outlast me, but man... It's 300 bucks lol.
