I do not know what temp will aneal aluminum but 550 degrees sticks in my
mind.  Try this.  Soot up the tubing per my last e-mail with acetyline and
put the tubing in the oven.  It it burns off you have it.  This would be
much safer then attempting to melt the tubes with a torch. Perhaps you could
stick part of your tubing in the  oven, keeping out the fittings, reverse
the tube and cure the other end.

What temperature do you need to get to anneal the
> aluminum?  My household oven goes to 500 F or so.  Will this do?
