Larry,
Did you get my reply?
If not, here it is...

They are just braided stainless steel lines with the proper AN fitting (AN4). Nothing special, any speed shop should be able to create them.
I bought mine from http://www.bsrproducts.com/, which is a local company. Give them a call, 704-662-0901, tell them the size and length and they will have them out to you shortly. Ask them to pressure test the lines for you, that will save you a lot of time. The two longer lines you saw running down my gear legs and one 14" section for the peddles cost something like $57 +/-. (I reused one of the 12" lines on the other brake peddle and replaced the ones I made.) No more leaks of any kind.
BTW, Tad Sargent used the same time line inside his plane so he didn't have to bend anything.
