Russ: Here is a trick i find very successful. taught to me by an old plumber, take your line cut it to length, put your end fittings on, cover one end with gray tape solid. Then fill your tube with silicon sand, pack it tight then cover the other end with tape. Take your tube bender and slowly start bending your curves take your TIME!! The sand alows tube to bend but not kink or be crushed.

Done many lines here at Hospital, and have had success with SS brake line. popcorn The Truth is Out There (Slow & Patience)
