Be careful about running copper. It is subject to fatigue due to

Thanks. I am aware of this, and the copper is only at fully supported
mounts on the sides of the locker, bulkheads, etc. The stove end is
about 18" of pressure hose to accommodate the gimballing stove top.

But I may look into all rubber anyway, as I haven't fitted it yet and
can use the copper elsewhere.
