2nd pipe done and tested with a capped off pipe.
worst case scenarion now if i can't figure out the rest, is that i cap off the pipes on the T Joints.. And call a plummer... Either way, the rest of the house still has water then, no loss of functionality...
Just need to put some brackets on the pipes, so they don't move around from pressure oscillations.. that would potentially make it leak over time

It's typical of how i work, fail safes along the way, mostly because i'm bound to screw up at some point... self knowledge



Maybe Nasa should gimme a call, i'm great at problem prevention and MccGyver style problem solving/patching...
Since they are going to the moon again, they could use me in case there's another Houston we have a problem like Apollo 13...


saw is no good for the pipes, the clamp fit's use a brass ring that leaves no room for deformed pipes or uneven cuts, the ring wouldn't fit anymore, it would leak
