That is cool. Why not do a write-up on how to use it?

I have one like the other style they have. Very handy for making brake lines. I have used it to splice a short section into the line that goes across the firewall to the passenger side front brake. Saved me a lot of time and money getting the whole thing from some far away wrecking yard.
