Here's my tip for bleeding brakes:

Rather than force the fluid from the master cylinder (and risk blowing fluid
all over the place), I use a Mityvac vaccuum pump to suck the fluid/air out
of the bleeder screw.  Works great.  A basic Mityvac kit is about $35 and
comes with lots of little attachments.  The bleeding kit (no vaccuum gauge
and can't be converted to pressure) is even less, about $20.
