Believe it or not the S/S lines weren't too bad in price, can't remember exactly but I wouldn't have purchased them it the cost was too high.
The Copper Nickel Lines sound decent and if you use the serial S/S wire wrap (Stone Guard) there would be less chance of damage.  As Chris has stated, mount them high out of the way !
Some say the S/S are harder to bend, I had no problems, even when I screwed up with a bend, with a little work you can unbend it... if the bend isn't too tight.

Anyone have any comments on the Double Flaring Tool (DFT) ?

My tool was getting old (reality) and I was getting about 75% good Double Flares, I got in the habit to leave a little extra material to cover up my mistakes.

When/IF I get to the new frame thing, I'm thinking of trying the Copper-Nickel Lines.
