It's not gonna leak and there's nothing wrong with a bushing on the sanitary side of a system. You don't have to use reducing couplings for everything below flood level rim, you just have to make sure you're not decreasing the size of the drain

Don't waste your money, they're the shittiest pliers you'll ever use

Garbage

Both my 5/16/60 and 3/8/80 Ridgids are still alive and well after 10 years

Is there a 60lb in 3/8? I know of 60 and 80 in 5/16, but only know of 80 in 3/8

So that's why there's a short bus waiting outside the job

Hence why I have no sympathy for riders that can't keep out of the throttle. They chose to be stupid, they get to deal with stupid results

That's not the part that makes him a douche bag. The speed and reckless maneuver do. Even if it's the "correct" thing to do, what dumbass would intentionally pass on the shoulder side of someone that's literally riding on the shoulder

Same here. Banned within 10 minutes

So people like me don't exist then? Got in the union at 19, within a year I had some of the best health insurance I could get. In the last 11 years, I have worked 40 hour weeks for the VAST majority of that, and if I do work overtime, it's paid out as overtime, not standard time, none of that bait and switch shit. I'm 30 now, making $60/hr, working steady 40hr weeks, have a pension and a 401A retirement account, and some fantastic health insurance. So you need to do some more research before going out and trying to say the trades are a joke. Are they for everyone? Absolutely not. But are they a joke? Also absolutely not

Nah, I think I'd prefer Scabby over the mod over here Looks like an insult to Scabby

Pipefitters do a lot of welding, and union is the way to go if you want good benefits and retirement on top of the pay

I want that Alias. I wish I never got rid of mine

I would wrap the cut section with masking tape, and if available, cut it with a drop saw. Attaching the bottom afterwards, I would use a 2 part epoxy

Junk

I fucking hate those types of wall mount faucet valves that don't give you legit anchor holes to screw the fucker to some backing

They look just like Nupla (probably made by Nupla in all honesty). They still make them, and they're some of the best dead blows ever, right up there with Lixie

That looks eerily close to a Nupla hammer. No way anything Craftsman today is even close to the quality he's got with that hammer

Get a new pop up assembly, cut the rod off of both ends of the ball, and install the ball back in as normal, it just won't be connected to anything

What I do know is on the bottom, it is tack welded on the inside of the ring, but how he blended the gel coat is beyond me

I don't know how he did it, but I had this done years ago by a local guy, he had an FB page "high pressure art", but I'm not on FB anymore really, so I can't tell you if he's still around
