Wow! No way! What is a plumbing store gonna need with beautiful flat
"pancake" copper tubing?? GEEZ! I guess I should be calling around then

One question, if the primary is made flat, is it easy to convert it to a
helix primary? I guess you would just give the end some lift, and form
around that eh?
