Another DIY victory

Plumbing,... ugh.

Leaking behind the wall in the bathroom. Copper pipe,.. real hard water,.. 40 years old,.. green ugly crusty pipe. 90 degree angle right below the floor,.. yes under the wall,..  yes in the crawl space between the first and second floors. 6 feet from the access hole. another green and corroded t joint visible. 

Cut the floor up on the second floor to access the pipes,.. Oh,.. did I mention the wiring comes out of the 200 amp electric box right into the crawl space. with the plumbing,... A good time to measure the depth of the cut with the circular saw,..  Oh yeah,, didn't even nick a single wire,... Musta had a good 1/8" of wiggle room. But,... now I'm bragging.

Nope it didn't go flawlessly,.. the first joint I sweated leaked,..  AARRGGHH,.. The last 12 went ok,.. Fixed the first one,.. Yup,.. it was the 90 under the floor,..

All is well,.. I should go out and buy a new amp with the money I saved...
