Pressure tubes disconnecting

Engineering fundamentally comes down to problem solving, and if the students can't get excited and inspired by the problem solving process because someone has spoon fed them a solution, then nobody wins.

Re: Pressure tubes disconnecting

All of the above suggestions are good, to repeat:

Cut the ends straight and clean

Insert it all the way

Give it a tug to seat it well

Don't have tension on the tubes, keep them loose

If the tube has been inserted a few times, replace it

And I'll add one that I found in our kit of bits

DON'T BE MIXING METRIC AND IMPERIAL!
