Brake Plumbing Ideas

I am looking for ideas for my Brake Plumbing. I want it to look a bit like Art. This is what I have come up with so far and I am liking it. I am considering more loops as an option. What do you think?

I would love to see what others have done and maybe ideas I have not considered, if you would share photo's.

Thank you for the compliment.

These are copper nickel alloy brake lines which I have not heard are not good. What makes them Not good for brake lines?
