Appeared to be when I had to remove the MF’er, just looks like the o-ring may have failed. A “real” plumber had installed it a few years ago. Btw, finding repair parts right.... Good luck. I had to piece some crap together to get it reasonably functional so that I can wait for the real plumber again.

 

Dang that looks great

 

Morning folks

 

Thanks!
Come on over!

 

I bought this crimp tool years ago, it works good but it’s tough in tight places because the handles are so long. I’ve only used the 1/2” & 3/4” crimps though.

Yepper all plumbing parts mostly sold out around here. Lots of frozen piping repairs going on.

 

Mornin’ Maner ‘n Friends.

Hope Y’all are through the worse of it.

 

Good Morning Eddie
I think we are. Just lots of repairs gonna be happening.

 

I wanted a backup plan when I replaced the shark bite. Contractor friend suggested a piece of rubber tube and hose clamps. Local hw store recommended a chunk of rubber air hose and clamps, so got some of that just in case since the repair was on my main feed line to the house.

 

When we had ours few years back they said 2 years to clean up just the downed trees. This has gotta be lots worse.

 

East Texas still in bad shape from all the ice they got. We mainly got snow here. I have very little tree damage

 

As good as I can

 

Morning y'all.

Same here. Just powdery snow.

We got really lucky during the whole thing, mostly. I'm at the plant today making up time from last week so I don't have to burn any PTO.

 

thats what she said...

chili looks great!

 

Good Morning John
All my family in nacogdoches is without power and water.

Ya they got hit bad. But them soft pine trees can’t handle the ice

 

Good Morning Maner and Crew

 

Good Morning Sam
