Have you found any source or short hoses or a way to make your own. I mean from the outlet to the machine? I see in the US they can buy some hand crimps and use ferrules, but I can't see any such here except for £1K crimping machines?

TIA, Alan.
I bought a 25 meter roll of the rubber hose with internal 10mm bore. I used some plastic trimming shears to cut the hose cleanly.
Then I used the pigtail type fittings and some small jubilee clips and made up several short hoses.
The hose has 2 threaded ends so this saved 2 fixings as the female quick connects screwed straight on.
No fancy stuff required.
