I had one of those setups and did some stuff on the Desoto with it, but like you had a few that I had to re-flare.
Inline Tube has a nice tutorial on their site:

I ended up getting this Eastwood one on sale a while back.

It's really nice to use and will flare stainless which can be tough with the regular sets, and with the turret it's very fast. About it's only downside is it's meant to be chucked into a bench vice for stability so you can't really flare lines on the vehicle.
