I had to flip through my receipts and it looks like I ended up getting them from AM autoparts my mistake. Carry on with the hate haha.

Double flares are simple to make . Here is a good video on how to do it. Practice a few times on some scrap tubing. I leaned this when I was like 14, anyone can do it. Copper nickel flares easily, steel is harder, stainless is the hardest. A little oil helps out too. DO NOT FORGET TO PUT NUTS ON THE LINE BEFORE YOU FLARE IT. THEY WILL NOT GO AROUND BENDS. Making the correct line length keep the braking system in balance. Just use the video it shows was to do perfectly. You can do this in your hands without the vise but the vise makes it easier. They can be made under the vehicle if you have to

I use a battery dewalt impact with the flare tool. It makes double flaring so easy. Takes about 30 seconds to double flare.
