Lasers and speed squares. Holdrite stub-out brackets and Viega pex water pipe going in for my post frame plumbing shop buildout. #postframe #auneplumbing
Same here they're fantastic for me DIYing some plaster just pencil the studs on ceiling or floor and lazer for the line to drill on. Perfect level for shelves too
Lasers aren't even that much money either. They range from like $50 to $1000 on the high end and are a game changer when it comes to making sure everything is level without spending too much time doing so. It's always best to double check with a regular level however because if you drop the laser or anything happens to it it can fuck it up
Nice job things are easy for us nowadays! Should cap the pex when fishing it in the holes to prevent a wood nugget from possibly causing you vexation later.
Прикольно, перышком бжинь, бжинь, трубочки протянул, кусочком жести все стянул, шуруповертом вжух, вжух сделал, вот и домик построил. А потом торнадо прилетел и сделал домику "фьють". А че, все при делах, всем есть работа)))

Man... kinda makes me miss plumbing. The amount of accessories they have for running pex these days is pretty nuts. Props on having the pride in your work to but out the level and do these people a solid job, even if they'll never see it to appreciate it.
That's not how the NEC code book works for real Electricians....but if the plumber says it....must be true....Sadly only thing I know about plumbing is that....shit runs downhill.
That's happened to a plumber I know. Took him best part of a day to drill all his holes. Only for the spark to come the next day and pull his wires through them. 🤣🤣. He was fuming.
@@jackpeoples1609 I have had pex in my house for 16 years. No breaks or dry Rot. I have a manifold that allows me to turn off the water to a single fixture if I need to make a repair. I don't have to shut off the main valve and disrupt the rest of my family. I even added a line to my refrigerator in my garage and didn't need a plumber.
Bullshit easy money. I watched two guys busting out 12 units every day it's no joke two guys responsible for 274 Apartments on this build while having other projects
You climb up in the attic space on a framed out apartment four stories up with a big fucking 90° hole saw running PEX and pipe. Making sure that every fucking floor 1. 2 and 3 + below floor and abovelines up right hoping to God that the framers got it right and that your pipe can run from Foundation to out the damn roof while teeing and lining everything else
I've pex-ed 5 houses fully. Pex-A is great! It's those "brackets" for the stub out are sh**ty. If you put a stainless steel supply line for the water heater, the "bracket" doesn't keep the stub out pipes straight. They kinda get crisscrossed in/outwards, or pushed up. I prefer a solid straight connection, so I pex onto a dog ear elbow female thread and stub out with a galvanized or brass pipe. Another note, if you pex into a "pex-to-valve" fitting, you'll have to cut off the pex-valve WHEN (not if) the valve fails, shortening your stub out. Better to use the pex-to-fe/male thread fitting, then screw on your valve. Edit: Lol! Drop ears! Didn't catch that til now. Thank you Mr. Anderson. Dog ears sound more fun. I'm leaving it.
Learned recently that you have to let PEX-A shrink back for 30 to 60 minutes before turning on the pressure. I didn't do that and about 6 fittings were dripping. In about 15 minutes the drips stopped and all was good.
@thehoser1965 we have froze pex a many times 3/4 and 1/2 never seen it burst I'm sure it could. We only live in Minnesota so not too cold here just -30f and colder.
Love it man! This piping system is soo efficient and you get to go home (mostly an earlier time than otherwise) at the end of the day after getting a LOT done and still have more than enough energy to live life and spend time with those closest to you- the way as it is intended to be, instead of being tired out from dealing with crappy piping materials that should be obsolete(in new builds) and the procedures that come with the territory... it's soo good to see a job getting done right... it's highly satisfying love it bro 👍
They cannot help themselves. Most are Trolls and never leave their mommy's basement. Then you have the wingnuts that watch the video and actually take the time to comment about how dumb it is to watch someone do plumbing. Some people's kids.

Oof. Poor buddy. Pex has 50 years. If it takes you 50 years to trust something then you must live a sad life. Copper is garbage compared to pex. Great in use with pex, but trash when compared next to it.
Really like the laser level. Unfortunately my boss would go nuts and tell me that I could get it in faster. I really wish I had the time when I worked to really make everything extremely detailed like that.

I love new constructions because shits just done so much cleaner looking.
A cap or tape on the ends of that pex before running it can save a lot of trouble later.
Anyone who installs something with an aerator before running flow through the line would agree.. they would also qualify as busted scrubs
Caps would be great . So many times, big splinters end up stuck in fridge valves, etc. Please plug the lines during the pipe run...
