    Jeff. Yet another detailed job that you make look easy. Just wanted to point out a small detail that you maybe didn't film but when testing a faucet (or new plumbing, or etc), always remove any aerators/flow restrictors at the spigot before turning on the water for the first time. Otherwise, they'll catch any debris in the lines and/or fixtures that can then cause uneven or blocked water flow. Otherwise, keep the great videos coming.

    You reminded me of when I was finishing my custom mailbox post last week. Went to lowe's and bought three 5" lag screws to attach the top. Not only did they not tighten up ONE BIT but they also stripped out in the process! And I'm saying one of them had a completely round head by the time I got it back out. So I returned that garbage and got three 6" torx construction screws at home depot that did the job on the first try.

    I agree on your statement about silicone, I always make sure that I buy good old acetoxy silicone. Chemistry somewhat disagrees with the statement of good silicone stinks: the "stinky silicone" is based on the acetoxy cure: look for methyltriacetoxysilane and ethyltriacetoxysilane or acetic acid on the label (the acid in vinegar ) fumes are what you smell. Very good bonding to almost everything, it cures very well, faster than the label says, *but it can corrode metals and discolor stones*.
    The other types are oxime and neutral cure, and they both bond almost as well and some have better characteristics for flexibility/tensile. But even though they state that they are water ready in 30 minutes, their fast skin time makes them very slow to cure to depth. The crappy silicones you refer to are probably not even silicone but hybrids.

    Hello! After attempting (and succeeding!) to change my bathroom’s sink faucet and drain pipes for the first time, I’ve become really interested in learning how to do other things around the house.
    Now I must ask, what does the spray hose connect to? I didn’t really understand.
    Also your videos are really well made, the instructions are very clear and I find myself watching them in my free time to learn more. Thanks!

    • @ringodingo
      @ringodingo 6 месяцев назад

      The spray hose quick-connects to the faucet's combined hot&cold water line. Those 2 seperate water supply lines lead from the shut off valves to the faucet. They combine in some form of mixing chamber and the water is directed down the combined line. This line connects to the spray hose. It's the one you attach the weight to. There might be tape on it to suggest where the weight should be attached. Just below the tape is usually a good location.
      Jeff can't answer all questions, but I hope this helps.

    The problem with steel is that it rots. And just when you're doing some kind of cleanout, it breaks out. Happened more than once to me. Plastic will never do that. Plastic also conforms better to a seal. It's not good for everything, but quite often its still a great option.
    Also, you should always install the faucet if you can on that sink before installing it. I thought you were making things easier by installing it before you placed the sink? That self is really unnecessary too. Should have killed it. Most sink basin cabinets never have a full shelf in them.

      Those plastic strainers are garbage. I was repiping below a sink and must've notched into the pre existing one and when I tested the strainer started leaking. Got soft and Brittle over time and immediately failed. Give me ridgid materials all day long. Jeff is a rookie though, doesn't deburr any pipe and the Teflon isn't doing anything on the ptrap, it's a tapered design, seals itself hes not a plumber but good at other things.

    I have a girlie question I am about to install new plumbing pipes under the sink and have pre connected them all the way the old ones were laid out when purchasing the waste pvc pipe Home Depot customer service suggested when I showed the old plumbing pipelines he thought that the waste line that’s connected to the tee pipe should be tiled slightly down to the tee pipe so gravity would drain better.
    Do you agree with this opinion?
    Thank you

      In small spaces it is not necessary to have pipes tilted 1 degree however it is not good to have them sloped in the wrong direction for sure. level is just fine for small joints. Cheers!

      just contact a structural engineer for the plans. anyone you hire will need to do the same so it isn't money wasted. then you can be sure to do it safe and right. It is actually easy once you have the right process in mind.

    tbh plastic doesnt rot like that cheap pot metal tho.. after the coating is nicked or worn through its amazing how fast that pot metal degrades and rots from just tap water... as long you u use plumbers dough and dont over torque it, it will far outlast the plastic imo
