The 6 spool control valve was too small for the 5/8th lines but thought I could get away with silver soldering adaptors with smaller hex's but still too tight.
Made spacers to stager the nuts and give room for the wrench. The Hardinge really shines when internal threading to a shoulder, the male threads were easy with the O-ring groove at the bottom. The female end needed a 12 deg taper for the O-ring to seat.

Spacers installed and nuts tight.

The hard lines are now done, can start making up hoses to the cylinders that swing.

Free advice is worth exactly what you payed for it.
