I have never used Pex for water lines. The worst part was unrolling it and making it go straight. Andy's softener install required us to split a supply line half way across the house above a suspended ceiling. Soldering brass valves into the old copper was challenging and working behind the furnace to hook up the hard water line was challenging. We got it and no leaks from the start. He bought a Dewalt Pex expanding tool which worked flawlessly (of course) Give me a sec to post some pics.

As many times as I've thought it might be interesting to see, my common sense kicks in and says "No F@#$in' Way You're Goin' There!" :lol:

Or go in there and post random **** to get them all riled up... :poke: :mob:

Wind them up and watch them go... Like a wind up toy... :soapbox: :drama:

The supplier quality guy at the engine factory I worked at had a sign in his office that said:

"Arguing with me is like wrestling a pig in the mud. After a while you realize that you are cold and tired and the pig is enjoying it"...

Can you use Pez instead???

 
I remember my father fixing a copper water pipe and trying to solder it when it would drip water down the pipe and was no way it would get hot enough to get the pipe soldered together. He would stuff bread up the pipe to hold back the dripping water long enough to get the solder to stick. Worked good and the bread would melt in the water.
shaving cream also works
 
I broke my ankle 10 days before Christmas and I haven’t had a good nights sleep since. Broke 3 bones, surgery one long screw and two plates. I’m begining to walk and have to do therapy now
Which was worse, ankle or hernia?

I had major knee surgery in 08, couple scopes since. I don’t do well with pain
 
Screw it. Cheers to you all. I'm having a sip or two tonight. Tomorrow I will be hydrating for the upcoming colonoscopy on Wednesday. Tomorrow will be the hydration day (and peeing all day) and Tuesday will be the cleansing day. (oh joy. I can't wait) I don't know what to expect for results. I have been having some strange issues that I needed to get checked out. Keeping my fingers crossed.

Here's that Pex tool. Slick! @Sublime one did you use this stuff on your new ranch?

Yes we did it is amazing. The tools and different size heads were pricey but they worked great. Other down side is where we purchased our fittings they made us purchase by the bag. We got a bunch extra so I traded those at local hardware.

Andy cut it close. He had 1 ring left over for the 3/4" size. a half bag left over for the 1/2" size. Cool technology though.

Good luck...

They got me on those water pills, makes you pee like a race horse...

Reminds me of drinking alcohol, you hold the first pee as long as you can, then it's every half hour after...
