Agreed???? Man, we better not let that ever happen again!!!!!

While we are on the subject of An fittings, whats the best way to cut the stainless lines. I have the fitting ready to go, but need to cut the hoses to length!

the best way i have found is to use a air cut off with a thin cut off wheel one thing i will add i did not see anyone one add this ?? is why i do not care much for the braided ss hose it makes a great hack saw so if you lay the hose up on any thing with out clamps it well cut in things like valve covers ect. my next job dry sump pan engine. i save up my milk money for starlite hose

The summit cutter seems the way to go. Eventually I will use all braided lines for bling value( I know pure stupidity) but it's just one of those things like a little billet in the right place, makes the job look a little neater!

after the smell of burning rubber i washer with dawn dish soap and blow dry dawn works good on oily ducks to.if you need to wash any i have used dawn soap as well to put the fitting s on the hose as well works good .just do not wash the new lines with the dishes OH you have not made very many lines till you jamed some of the SS wire under your finger nails
