So my father lucked into a spool of flexible gas line by happy accident. It's ribbed stainless with a yellow plastic wrapper, 3/8" ID, and all of .010" thick. It doesn't hold a wide bend very well since it is so thin, so I had to use copper wire to tie it to itself as I wrapped it. It's 1/2" OD, so I used some 1/2" ID vinyl for the supply line with a bard fitting and hose bib. I went short on the tubing, so the output line isn't attached yet. There are 12 wraps in the coil, making a 35' straight run. I can't wait to try it out next weekend.
I'm figuring the ribbing makes more surface area than a 50' chiller in a smaller package, and the extremely thin stainless makes it behave almost as well as copper in the conductivity department.
