I use a bike inner tube and a bike foot pump with pressure gauge. Fill the master cylinder, cut the tube a foot down from the valve stem, tie a knot, and put the open end of the tube over the master cylinder with a hose clamp to hold it in place. Pump up the pressure a bit and bleed away. It’s a bit inconvenient to remove and put back on when you need to refill the master cylinder, but not too bad. Plus a bike tube is only a couple bucks! Be sure not to get one for skinny tires though.
I’m glad I don’t have a picture of this set up, as it looks far less bad ass than Randy’s!
