  • You should look into oneida air systems dust collectors. I watched table refinishing video. Commenting here because its the most recent. Thanks for the vids and humor. Save your lungs with better dust collection

  • So we do not need the black plastic guide it goes right in the valve

  • Can you still use a 2x4 stringer when you a using a fiberglass tub wall? You will only have 3/4" space when adding the black plastic guard. I'm using PEX and I plan to use a 3/4 stringer.

  • Pex... extremely flexible but their clamps suck. If your a DY’er and set that clamp to low or two high it’s going to leak

  • What should I do if the hot water pipe for my shower is running to the right side?

  • I thought the Delta valve I had had NPT threads instead of IPS threads... and a standard drop-ear also, IIRC, Does that sound right? Thanks for the video!

  • Great video. Was concerned about shower rise using pex. That’s where water comes out of the shower when you’re using the tub spout. I think this can happen sometimes when using pex. If there’s any kind of restriction going to the spout water can go up the shower too and result in this shower rise. I’m not sure if the three screw. hole connector (5:06) shown for shower could cause that restriction or not since the same one is used at the bottom for the tub connection. I saw another video where the tub connection was made with copper and the rest was pex. Not sure if that has something to do with making this less of an issue. Hope this makes sense. Thanks
