What's the trick in flaring SS tubing? I heard it was hard to do, and found out it is. I tried double flare first then single flare. I chamferred the inside and used oil and all it did was push thru the clamp. I thought about using heat to warm in up some. Is there a discussion about this anywhere? Need some ideas. Link that I found |
Re: Project Vitamin C-10
Allan your truck is too nice to put a Shop Sign on it's door. Put one on your back window.

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
The company that I got all my lines frome had some diffrent kind of end maker. Looked really cool and a lot easier then the one you got. It just cost about $300 for it. check out http://store.fedhillusa.com/flaringtools.aspx

Happy NewYear everyone. It's been a rough start to the New Year for me. I won't bore you with the details. I wish I could post some progress pics. As most of you know we had a little snow/ice event here. We didn't get much, but a week later it is still here. That is very unusal for this area. It got down to 7&8 degrees a couple nights and the teens for several nights. We went 10 straight days when the high didn't get above freezing. With that and everything else that has been going on Depression set in and thought about selling the truck and saying the Hell with it. I'm slowly coming out of that fog. I just gotta keep digging. :chevy: |

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
You have done some awesome work. Think about jumping in the truck with the wife and cruising done a country on a sunny warm afternoon. I remember living up north and feeling the winter blues. You can push through this.

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
Hang in there dude! Awsome build. We had 20" snow with 50 mph winds over christmas. Frozen water sewer then furnace quit at house, -20 deg a few days. But been up to the 40's the past week and bunch of broken cars in shop. All my "projects" under 8ft drift. Spring is coming! We all get down this time of year. (holiday bills):devil:

Been a bad winter for all.

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
Hey Alan, Do not give up the ship!! I think Idaho winters are rough until I read of the Midwestern and Canadian guys threads. Theirs is much worse.
Get a SAD sunlight and do some winter light therapy while you are on the computer at night. It really does help my patience level and mood improve when my winter depression hits. With a project the size of like yours and working for a living It can easily burn a guy out. Take a little break -your not on the clock and it is supposed to be fun!! I used to laugh at my Father-in-law and his 1 year projects, 5 year projects and 10 year projects. I am understanding these things better now that I am older. Hang in there, I enjoy your thread.

Re: Project Vitamin C-10
I wonder if welding without your helmet on counts as uv therapy:lol:
