Most (stock) brake stuff uses "double" flare - is that what you're looking to do? Or a single 45? Different tools...
Doing SS tubing is an issue - depends on the tubing being used. SS is "brittle" and splits easily when flaring. Did you get seamless and annealed tubing from a good quality brake line supplier?
