Often there is hardly room for a hacksaw. ----- Original Message ----- From: Alan & Terrie Robbins To: [email protected] Sent: Tuesday, October 13, 2009 8:01 AM Subject: RE: [BlindHandyMan] Plumbing rough in Dan, Not sure how Scott did it, but I used a tubing cutter.

How did you remove the old valves? Did you heat them and pull them apart? Or did you cut them off and hope for enough slack? Or, were the old one's compression fittings also and you were able to pry them apart? Just curious. -- Blue skies. Dan Rossi Carnegie Mellon University.
