King C Posted June 17, 2006 Report Share Posted June 17, 2006 (edited) From a request made by a new member I've decided to share my method of making magura crossovers.My weapns of choice:Pliers, lighter, an old magura slave cylinder, hose clamps and vice.Step one: Cut the hosing dow to about 23cm.Step two: Put one end of the hosing in the hose clamps and then into the vice. Leave about 1-1.5cm sticking out.Step three: screw the nipple into the old slave cylinder and hold like this:Step four: ignite the lighter with the other hand and wave slowly it across the tip of the exposed hosing for around 2 seconds.Step five: then grasp the cylinder and start to push the nipple onto the hosingDon't I have lovely hands If the hose collapses into a "N" shape it means that the hose is too hot. Et viola:Who likes the Ghetto clear hosing? This way you know if you have air bubbles in the system.BTW I dont really know how to upload pictures and have sort of bodged the uploading. Thats why when you click on the images It says Error. Edited June 17, 2006 by kcchan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
