Wildman drilling inot the siding with a spade bit. I use a hole saw backwards to get through the plastic and the house because thats all ipl use. Ive had the siding crack especially if it's cold out.
Miss your videos very informative. Maybe you can tell us homeowners the difference between 79 cent single pole switches and the $4.00 ones and what do you use?
Man you actually made a job out of this, you could’ve just taken a square shovel and pitch the soil a bit then put a short leader hose so when you want to attach you’re regular hose it’s a snap😅. A remedy for the ants use old motor oil around the perimeter of the house no more ants or termites just don’t let the environmental freaks know about it 😂 keep the vids coming 👍
you know, you can hold a fitting against the outside of pipe and depth mark it before you shove it in place, then you don't have to put them in and take them out multiple times. measure, cut, mark depth, insert, press. 😉 unless you're trying to pad out an hourly rate. 😏
I meant just use one of the same size fittings as a marking gauge and holding it lined up on the outside since they all have a raised area where the pipe stops against. or you could always make your own gauges with various size pvc (and caps). if you want a slide over and hard stop marking gauge. even little blocks of wood cut to the same length and held flush to the end would work.(more things to drag around and fiddle with, vs. just holding a fitting there)
I don't rum new copper just repairs and only use the manual press 6 to 12 fittings a month that's why it's so hard. Maybe I'll keep an eye out for a used one that's dirt cheap.

@@thehandymanexperience226 your welcome.
good work, I would rarely use that spigot just because it's so low ,if at least it wasn't frost-free and angled to the side instead of down
Thanks man!! Yea definitely a crappy scenario
look s better that way but pex can take a freeze better except for the connecter' s
Yea pex is awesome for freezing!!
