I'm in the process of plumbing up my compressor, and I got my metal flex
pipe from:
http://www.alamohose.com
The page you want is here:
http://www.alamohose.com/34flexmethos.html
I think it was ~$25 including shipping for a 3/4" x 18" section. This was a
bit less than what Tip Tools wanted, and they have a wider selection of
sizes to boot.
As usual, no affilitation with Alamo, just a satisfied customer.
