Where are you guys finding the braiding? Not blanks with braid, but the raw braid itself? I'd like to try a few...

I found some copper from an electronics supplier I use, but it was tinned... :(

I use the braided stainless steel toilet supply lines from Home Depot. I used to use stainless oil cooler lines for motorcycles, but HD was substantially less expensive than the motorcycle shop.

The smallest diameter you can find seems to work better. Ice maker and toilet supply lines fit the tubes more snugly than faucet supply lines. The plastics pipe inside the stainless steel sheath slides right out.
