    kerker - I saw a demo of the Koul Tool and actually made up a couple of joints and would have bought one in a heartbeat had I known about them - I've had bloody fingertips just about every time I made up a fitting as there is at least one strand that sticks out and gets ya. I can't justify the cost now, so - more blood any time I do braided line

    Try using a deep well impact socket to 'screw' the nut part onto the hose. It'll act as a handle that you can manuever the fitting whlie turning it.

    It's a cool tool, but for the I'm gonna build one car, OK, maybe two, it's not worth the money.

    Now I know who to call on the next time I need to make up a couple lines. (That is if I could only figure out how to make UK/US/UK postage less)

    They are probably too expensive to buy for home use Dave but i use them an aweful lot so paid for themselves very quickly.

    .....too many more bloody fingertips and like Pat said, under a fingernail ( ) might just consider the bucks though
