Don't cut the Pipe to length until you've done the First one, then if it goes wrong you can chop off the end and start all over again, without wasting too much Pipe.

The Slimmed Down 'Nylock Nuts' were a Perfect fit. That Brake Pipe which had sadly failed to pass 'Quality Control; is only on just to keep the dust out.
