The female inverted flare fittings were challenging, until I found a retired tool and die maker who made me some special taps.

Again, anyone with a hobby lathe and hobby milling machine can make this stuff. To quote an old cliche " it ain't rocket science".

Lots easier today than it once was, thanks to the efforts of guys like Steve and Chris.

Thanks Jon!
