The FLAPS has the complete set ( like the first pic in my previous post) as part of the loaner tool stock. The zone and pep boyz has OEM brand, advance has auto craft brand. Deposit is around 30 bucks. When I am assembling an experimental rig out of stuff lying around, I double flare the sketchy tubing to make sure it doesn't fail because of a thin, brittle, or otherwise crappy flare joint.

The adapter set can be found by itself, but is usually the same price as the loaner set from the FLAPS. Harbor freight carries the whole set and it's about 20 bucks. eBay and Amazon and Walmart and other online stores are hit and miss as to the quality of the product, but offer comparable stuff for however much you want to spend.

If you want to braze something to the end instead, the compression fitting sleeves work well. I have done that for fuel lines before, and they work just fine as well.
