Saving money for more important things like external hard drives ETC is a good reason to plumb.

I have replaced the guts of 5 toilets in the past 3 years and they all work wonderfully now. Changing a sink faucet is an exercise in patience to be sure, but I have more patience than greenbacks and saving that dinero makes me even more patient than usual. The thing about plumbing is you have to be precise in measurements or you end up with leaks unless you are OK with using the flexible tubing connections. And of course those tight spots present an entirely different challenge; how can you cram wrench, knuckles and movement into those little corners where someone installed pipes when everything was new and open. Again, patience, Patience, PATIENCE!!! ---------------- Bill Gallik E-Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] - "The reason why worry kills more people than work is that more people worry than work." - Robert Frost - "The purpose of life is to fight maturity." - Dick Werthimer [Non-text portions of this message have been removed] [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]
