Sweating joints on cooper can be a bit of a black art, but you get the hang of it pretty quick. PVC and ABS plastic pipe? Well ya had tinker toys when you were a kid didn't ya?

A $20 book from Home Depot can work wonders.

I just plumbed in a sink in the laundry room I am building.
Yeah, the old copper piping could be a little tricky and with the old steel and cast drain piping it's best to just rip it out and use the plastic stuff. It's so easy that most illegal immigrants can probably do it...well...actually they often do.
