Dear Listers,

What thought does anyone have about annealling/stress relieving the oil lines?

My understanding is that work hardening will come about during the bending
process and the tubing can be annealled to soften it, then continue to be
bent to final shape (if it is a pretty drastic bend or complex shape). I
don't see why this can't be done once again.

John, I think if you got them hot enough to anneal, you would then be in the
range of un silver soldering them...if that is a word. Maybe they were
brazed, if so, then it might work.

I found a later style integral pump for my Arnolt....but I wouldn't want to
start an originality flame war going!!
