Ok...I couldnt let a fellow Jason that is clearly putting that much "production value" into these videos go on with only 92 subscribers. Glad to be number 93. Keep it up! I'm reliving a couple projects through you... funny stuff. Do you also gauge your projects by how many trips to the hardware store they take?
I think those bendy, flexible pipe fittings are not up to code because debris easily gets trapped in them. If you notice, on the boxes the manufacturers call them flexible "tubes" not flexible "pipes" because they are not allowed to be used as pipes. The bathroom otherwise looks nice though.
It looks so easy that I managed to convince my boyfriend to do it ourselves. When we went in we found out that our cabinet had a full back wall/panel, we had to break the cabinet to pieces than we found out that when the Mfg pur how many inches deep, they mean the top counter and not the bottom base, so we ended up having a counter that was 1" away from where the tile starts...Advice for newbies: measure the bottom of the cabinet at the store, don't count on the measurements printed on the the box .
Very helpful AND entertaining! So, I did a google search for 'flexible dealy bob' and no joke that part came right up - which is great because it is exactly what I need for my project.
Ok, so what if you don't want to replace the countertop on top of the vanity, is that an option? Pretty sure my current countertop is liquid nailed to the wall already
I been looking all over. Can anyone tell me if the sink has to be exactly where the plumbing comes in? Ex- current sink is 1 ft from the wall. I’d like to make the vanity wider by a foot and move the sink to 1.5” from the wall. Possible?
How long did it take you? My plumber quoted $400 to install a $125 vanity combo that is EXACTLY the same size/configuration I already have. Can you come help me 🙄
@@nathanielhartley4764 technically no but there is the possibility that it will not tighten the way it should and cause a small drip because the gasket never got the chance to tighten all the way down. Just my friendly advice
That flexible drain fitting you used is illegal in most places. It's biggest problem is that it is extremely weak and the ridges in it will trap all the gunk that goes down the drain causing clogs and leaks.
i see the putty on the counter but dont know what you used it on lol.. can you explain what that is for... its in the cup like container with the red top...
Sorry, but after watching about 20 seconds of your video, that Beethoven 9th Symphony captured my heart, and I had to temporarily leave to get more. Found a wonderful rendition by Conductor Herbert Von Karajan, at RUclips: "Beethoven 9th Symphony - Herbert Von Karajan (1080p)." Then, I went back to finish your DIY job. Thanks!
My vanity is screwed into the wall and sealed around the back and side and of course the drain stop is attached to the main drain. Never quite as easy as it looks.
Looks like it's called a Flex 'n Fix tailpiece at lowes. They do clog easier than other options, but they're also easier to take apart and clean. Pluses and minuses both ways.
Skip the Teflon tape. Not needed on flexible supply lines due to the built in seal/gasket in the supply lines, and you're right, the flexible drain extension is, well, not exactly heresy, but they are a bad idea due to to catching andnhildimg grunge, often resulting in stink.😛 (BTW, I am a plumber. 🙂) Anyway I'm going to subscribe because your videos are upbeat and fun to watch, especially the mini bike ones.👍

@@Bluedog5581 Well on his way!
now he has 93,000 subs. nicely done
Awe man when you started talking about cutting pipes and adding in a thingy majigger I was like, “I’m out!”
Yeah I haven’t and won’t claim to be a master plumber. You’re totally right. Doing this correctly isn’t much harder. We all start somewhere.
😂😂
Wasn’t expecting the ending! Lol. Great sudden turn! Thanks for sharing. This was very helpful!

lol! that ending was better than most comedy skits!
Ha! Thanks. 😂
Hi Jason. I am also a Jason and I must thank and congratulate you on such an epic transformation. You are a scholar and a gentleman.
Glad this was the first video I chose for guidance. Lol. I feel like I can totally conquer this sink vanity!
Ditto!
Great video. Quick, precise, and easy to understand. Thanks!
I love the ending 😂. Thank you for making this video. Looks like I'm setting up my bathroom vanity now 😀
😂😂😂Great Storyline!!!! Thank you for explaining how to remove and reinstall a sink, I needed to see this video😊.
Thank you. You saved me from a lot of aggravation in my small bathroom.
Alot easier then I thought and I figured it would be easy, and 2 handsome dudes approved! LOL
You made this look easy. I’m gonna do this myself. Thank you!
Ending alone earned a sub. Good stuff sir!
thank you. if i did not buy back splashes what to do?
OMG-that vintage bug in your garage! I’m swooning!
Thanks! There’s a bunch of videos about it. Check out the VW playlist. :-)
Ok, this is my style of video. I saved to help me with my DIY, great video thanks!
You make me think I can actually do this on my own. The need board installation. Do you have a video for that?
You should always fill up the sink and drain test it for leaks.
Yes, did that off camera.
Dude... you are wonderful. This video was both informative AND entertaining! So funny. JP
Appreciate it. It's fun.
Very good stuff! The chair toss at the end made me a fan because that is my style!!!!
Solid guide, solid skit at the end.
😄😄😄😄😄 I thoroughly enjoyed your tutorial hahaha especially the end.
Love these old videos before I bought a wireless mic. 😂
You didn't use any plumbers putty.
Do most vanity’s come pre built like that? I always had the impression they would be need to be assembled
Yeah, I think it has to do with the size of the vanity. This is definitely one of the easiest ones I’ve installed.
@@JasonExplainsThings do you have the link of this one?
This whole video 10/10 😂
It’s hilarious this video still get views. Thanks so much for checking it out. :-)
Why didn’t you use stainless putty to install the faucet?
Haha!! That end was hilarious 😂 😃 😄

There's a saying: Measure twice, cut once! Always try to dry-fit something when possible.
That ending killed it 🤣🤣
I came here for the vanity install, I subscribed for the laughs. Great job, loved the message at the end of your folding table vid.
Thanks Frank.
What type of sealant and adhesive do I use ?
Very helpful AND entertaining! So, I did a google search for 'flexible dealy bob' and no joke that part came right up - which is great because it is exactly what I need for my project.
Omg!!😂😂😂 I absolutely love how real this video is and the ENDING!👏🏼😂
Do you need to replace the drainage pipes?
No, not if they're unclogged and in good shape.
3 years later this is the exact vanity i'm installing lol!
why use tape when those are compression fittings? it has a gasket on the nut so you dont need tape. other than that it went flawless
It could of been worse. He could of used Teflon tape and pipe dope on the threads for some real overkill.
Did you use anything to adhere it to the floor?
Nope. Just secure it to the wall
What about having a separate vanity top that needs set
I can't say I like how everything was connected and it still pulled away from the wall clean (,watching without sound, so i maybe missed something?
Ok, so what if you don't want to replace the countertop on top of the vanity, is that an option? Pretty sure my current countertop is liquid nailed to the wall already
Maybe? If it's glued on it'll be hard not to damage things. :-) Good luck.
Haha this was freakin awesome! Going to tackle this on my bathroom here soon, thanks for the video!
Go Hawks! ... and Ms! ...and, ooh nice bug! Haha

Thank you for this video. You help a lot of people.
Attempting this on my own this weekend! Thanks for the reassurance!
What is the band you wrapped around the knob at 3:00 please?
I don’t like a vanity with legs where I have to sweep/mop under it
THIS DUDE IS AMAZIIINNNNNNGGGG!!! And how the heck he get Jim Carrey to do his intro... lol
LOL. Thanks man. That old bathroom series was fun.
Is that sink glue to the cabinet already ?
This one was together, yes.
"What about the bathroom upstairs?"
Hilarious,thanks for sharing great tips and very informative video. I found it useful in my own project. thanks
How long did it take you? My plumber quoted $400 to install a $125 vanity combo that is EXACTLY the same size/configuration I already have. Can you come help me 🙄
The install of just the vanity? Maybe 2 hours? And I'm no expert.
Do not add teflon tape to the angle stops, the compression supply lines already have a rubber gasket
Is there any harm in it?
@@nathanielhartley4764 technically no but there is the possibility that it will not tighten the way it should and cause a small drip because the gasket never got the chance to tighten all the way down. Just my friendly advice
Thank you. I am on my way to Menards to buy a new faucet for our vanity. I am confident I can do the job and excited to use your video as my guide.🙂
That flexible drain fitting you used is illegal in most places. It's biggest problem is that it is extremely weak and the ridges in it will trap all the gunk that goes down the drain causing clogs and leaks.
All true. Only positive I’ll say is the flex drain is very easy to remove and clean when it’s clogged. Silver lining! 😂
The accordion section will be a magnet for hair etc. I am sure you will be changing that soon.
True, true.
Never use those they just collect hair and anything you put in there.
i see the putty on the counter but dont know what you used it on lol.. can you explain what that is for... its in the cup like container with the red top...
Made the cutting room floor. I thought the drain needed it but it came with a rubber gasket instead.
Thanks for watching this older video! My new ones are much better. :-)
QUESTION! Im going to install luxury vinyl plank flooring in bathroom, do they go around or under vanity??????
Under. I did that exact same thing for my upstairs bathroom. It's pretty easy to install.
Love the intro and outro lol.
It is not necessary to put teflon tape on those valves, they have a tapered seal with a rubber.
Thanks for making simple!! I’m gonna attempt doing my bathroom.
Great informative video and the ending had me ROLLING LOLLL
How do you know where on the wall to screw the vanity?
Stud finder.
You’re nuts!!! 🤣🤣🤣 The ending at me laughing! I understand how you feel. I’m sorry! 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Great video.
So do you screw the vanity to the wall?
I just used some wood screws.
Hilarious ending!
Wow! That's pretty easy. Thank you.
You’re welcome. 👍

What you call a flexible deley bobs those are not code use some pvc fittings 3:53
the ending is hilarious. hahaha!!
Didn’t make any videos about that bathroom. :-)
Right on and GO HAWLKS!
Great video! Now off to start my bathroom reno
Good luck! Have fun!
Great video 😂👍
That was hilarious! And very informative! Thanks for the laugh!😁👍🏽
Awesome video! My wife is making me replace the vanity downstairs.
Nice! Glad you enjoyed it. These older videos of mine are pretty goofy.
@@JasonExplainsThings appreciate the effort. Better this than some boring DIY video.
Those flex drains are illegal in most areas. Drain lines must have a smooth-bore interior. Don't ever use them.
No thank u for this video, facts n fun ❤ ps good luck upstairs lol
LOL… upstairs remodel was a beast. This video is like 6 years old now.
What is that accordion pipe called?
Looks like it's called a Flex 'n Fix tailpiece at lowes. They do clog easier than other options, but they're also easier to take apart and clean. Pluses and minuses both ways.
From a fellow DIY guy, thanks for the helpful video.
I just subscribed!
Never heard a toilet being called sumptuous before 😁
Thank you so much. You helped me install my own vanity.
Respect the M’s and Hawks swag 😁… go hawks, even without Russ 🥺
This video was awesome. Great job!
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed one of my older videos.
Amen brother! Yes I gauge projects on trips to Lowes and dump runs! 😅
LOVE your VW!
Thanks! I really need to get back to working on and driving it.
I was laughing hard in the end. You did a great job my friend. You deserve more subscribers.
Best instructions I have found, I think I know what I need now .Thank you so much !
Thanks!
lol thank you for sharing 😆
Love the Monty Python influence 😊

I just discovered you and I'm literally rotflmao right now. I have a fixer upper from the 70's. I'm gonna watch you bro.
Very helpful thanks
Great video !!! Hahah thanks for step by step
It works very well.
So the old vanity wasnt adhering to the drywall...at all...okay
atta boy JASON!!!!
The corrugated pipe (flexible one you called) will not pass inspections, just an FYI.
nice video, nice VW as well.
Convenient how you don't have to deal with baseboards or drywall and stud finding.
That's because this is part of a bathroom remodel series where I worked on all that stuff. If you plan ahead things are convenient. :-)
@@JasonExplainsThings also replacements are different from installs and complete remodels.
