Now that my project is totally in bits I can see the brake pipes that are left and they are just OK.
Going to make new pipes up and because the set up is a Disco / 110 mixture an off the shelf kit won't do.
What is the best kit (not ££££) flaring tool and where to buy? Seen kits on fleabay but don't know which worth buying. Advice or recommendations please.
Will need pipe too.
 
I've got a Sykes Pickavant flare master and it's very good with good flares every time, I've tried the cheapo kits off ebay and I have never had much luck with them.
Not cheap but for me it will pay for it's self over the years.
Where are you located? I could make some up for you if local.
 
Clarke do a flaring kit at a reasonable price available from machine Mart, flares are easy to achieve and seal without issues! Ive had mine 8 years and have made brake pipes for many different Classic cars.

I cheated and bought an Automec ready made kit. Copper/Nickel or cunifer as Aaron said. Not cheap, but probably saves a lot of work for a one off rebuild. Everything is well labelled as to what goes where.
