If you cant find a beading tool use a plumbers olive on the end of the pipe and solder it on. This stuff http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ALUSOL-ALU...item3f203b68f2 believe it or not will solder ali to brass if you get it clean and use the right flux. If there is any left over its worth having in the workshop for repairing ali casings.
