Okay guys....I am an absolute complete moron. Started looking at the Imperial stuff and their directions. It appears that double flaring is a 2 step process and I was only completing the first step. Got my practice line back out and did BOTH steps this time. You know what....the little tool works pretty good. I'm still going to look for a better quality one but at least I know it's a 2 step process to success. Thanks Shane for getting my brain working again.
