    Hi Gavin, I did not know about your back. I am (I imagine I dare to say we all here are) very happy you could climb back on the train.
    Congratulations. Much respect! Cheers.

    After seeing all this drainage piping and what you go through to figure out the configurations, seems like it would be an excellent idea to have maps of the entire drainage system that is a requirement when the house is built. To also include what type of pipes are used, dates laid, and any other pertinent information necessary in order to manage the system.

  • @smasica

    Your tenacity in solving the problem reminded of a line from one of my favorite movies, "Tremors". Kevin Bacon is trying to outwit the monster and quips to his partner, "This thing ain't smarter than me."

    What's the reason that the above-ground right-angle sewer bends aren't required to be the ones with IO access ports by code? I see a lot of straight drops that have them just above ground (like that one you had to get Ollie to open for you on your holidays), but never the right-angles like the one you worked on today.
