How about a primer on how best to use em and what size o ring to use. There

Funny you should mentioned that. I was just thinking about how to align them
when welding them to the aluminum plumbing tubing. We need a machined mandrill 
to go inside the plumbing tubes so the necessary axial alignment of both plumbing
tubes can be checked. A one inch dia. piece of three inch long steel tubing 
would work with a bit of tape wrapped around it.

If necessary a short piece of straight 1-3/8  OD tube may need to be welded to the
plumbing tubing or a long 1-1/8 dia. steel tube or bar used as a lever to bring 
things into alignment. BTW I increased the length of the FERRULE so bonding
them with high temp epoxy instead of welding them should be very reliable
leak wise.
