Brake line pipe cutter & flaring tool help?

Does anyone in the metro area have a copper brake line cutter and flaring tool I could borrow/rent for a 6 pack?

I had a minor incident over the weekend but have managed to bend the hydraulic copper pipe just as it enters the fitting on the hitch. It's weeping fluid under braking and I think it’s a bit more than just tightening is going to fix.

Ta, Darren

Thanks... Relocated.

I only ever use the latest content button so didn't think much about it. I'll drop you a PM.

The ones i saw were $15 for the cutter and $50 for a flare tool with pretty poor review.

Tow it to Martin's trailer parts in o'conner. They will do it.  They have the correct double flare tool

 'Im sure your aware you will need to re bleed the lines again.
