I had a nice snap on that would do normal and double flares. They only have double flare dies for us sizes, not metric, but I was able to make double flares with practice.

The last time i needed double flares, I used my cheap flare tool and just bought the 1/8" double flare die from snappy. it worked to make double flares for MB 110 brake lines. I have never seen a tool that makes 37degree JIC flares. The only place I have seen the JIC flare used is hydraulics, and you don't want to be doing that yourself. At least I don't want to be around if you do. For hydraulics, you buy the right fittings, especially when you get to 3000 PSI hydraulics.

Can anyone recommend a good all-purpose tubing flare tool that will do
45 and 37 (AN) flares, as well as double and metric "bubble" flares I
know it will probably be costly but I'd rather have one good tool that
can do it all than a bunch of different cheap tools.
