I've got 40 at the house if you want some, I can get as many as you want now that I know where to get them. Unfortunately they charge an arm and a leg $.25 a piece. Once I get to order a bunch I can get them down to $.20... But they work freaking GREAT. I'm putting together a system for my boss (dual celerys) and they grip as good as hard tubing!
You kidding me? Locally they are twice that cost and thats just for tiny 3/8OD ones, so I think thats a steal. I could use ~20. Mind if I shoot you an email tomorrow after I get time to check out my local hardware store's fittings? I got to much Chem to go tonight and I'm sure something else will turn up that they can't sell me.

Also you said "1/2"OD x 3/8"ID". I have a few smaller 3/8OD ones left over from my flamethrower project. They are exactly like you describe yours, a brass shell casing. On mine they are so thin (at most 1/32inch thick, perhaps less) that the ID and OD are essentially the same. I think yours would be the same, so I want to make sure that these will work fine with standard 1/2ID, 5/8OD silicon tube from Dangerden.
