Trying to uncoil a rolled up pipe and then straighten it and fit it into a confined space has resulted in the above disaster.
I think the pipes are unrecoverable so I am going to chop them out, put in a connector and make up new pipes with the help of the tools below. (2 straighteners and a new brake pipe bender on the left)
I have also modified the billet stainless brake pipe clamps which I am hoping will further improve the finished article.
Watch this space !!!
