  • What you are talking about is soft soldering, it is easy when you get the knack. Make sure both surfaces are clean and shine, then heat the joint.

    Personally I currently like pex piping cheaper than copper and easier to install.

    From my perspective PEX is a million times better as there is more margin for error drilling the centre of a joist rather than notching the top/bottom. Also means it's less likely that some clown will put a nail / screw through it. Therefore I won't have to waist my time putting someone else's fuck right.

  • FUCKING hate notched joints, have seen so many horror stories..Also if you buy a roll a straight run. Also the screwed joints don't have to be that tight as the correctly seated split ring will hold the pipe not the actual outer bolt.
