why online?
go to your local motor factor and buy a roll of brake pipe (copper is better than the other type) for about a tenner. the ends cost a few pence each and the flaring tool will be about £20 (for a cheap hand held jobby)
and as for benders
just bend it with your hands (thats why copper is easier to work with than the other shit.
job done!

yep, any half decent motor factor should sell em (I got mine from local one but they're quite good and concentrate heavily on supplying to the trade)
as it says theyre no use on steel pipe, but none of them are, so you need to replace the whole pipe with copper. easy enough to use though.
