I'm not a hydraulics guy but worked on the electronics of several installations: if the parts being conected are not moving with respect to each other it's a lot cheaper to use the solid tubing with the compression fittings as Frosty suggested. Also, don't overspecify or use a non-standard pressure, use the closest standard.
