provided that you follow manufacturer

copper, then a tubing cutter. On no
account use a hacksaw.

Using a proper tube cutter produces a slightly 'rolled over' end in copper
tube - ideal for the smooth and damage free entry to a rubber seal.

I'm surprised one of your claimed experience hasn't noticed this? Perhaps
a visit to Specsavers is needed. They advertise heavily so you must know
about them?
