That looks really nice and fancy! I have no problems cutting the tube (I think), but I wouldn't know how to proceed and attach that part to it. I have no tools to thread or flare anything.

You can try one of the other methods and if it does not work out for you you can try another.
You don't need to flare or tap anything.
Might want to look up some instructions on the internet to see if it is what you want to do.
There is 2 small brass collar, you slide the nut on and you slide a brass collar over the tube. When you thread on and tighten the Nut the collar compresses around the tubing and it seals.
You do the same to the other side.
Don't cut the tubing too short and if the tube is too rusty the collars won't seal around the tubing.
