Ever tried soldering copper pipe to acrylic or acetate?
The guy with the step down piece at the end of the tube is close to the neatest answer. use 15mm or 22mm copper pipe, cos it's cheap. Get/make a plug for the end. Drill & tap it to G1/4", finding the tap may be a laugh. Then take your pick of male to male g1/4" fittings, sli connectors and compression fittings with a short length of tygon inbetween.
Copper piping is popular in the well below zero group, since tubing doesn't work so well if it gets too cold. Bear in mind that you're going to need some serious care and a bending jig of some sort to get the tolerances good enough, this is part of why I suggested sli connectors.
Unless you're going well below zero tygon is a much better choice. With compression fittings it'll fit just about anywhere, if it's so tight that it's inclined to kink you put something around the outside to stop it. I particularly like the idea of a short length of copper pipe bent through 45 degrees from linear with the tygon threaded through it as a low-restriction alternative to a 45
