What is it for?!
why do the american washing machines need hot water?
I'd use more glue to be sure. But good job otherwise
The only thing that will last in this video is that old General Electric was Washing machine.
very sloppy looking glue joints
Sloppy with the yellow goo.
What I liked best was that old school washer they don't make them like that anymore
Why do we love to complicate our lives , I dont understand.
TOTALLY RIDICULOUS. Plastic pipe, cutting, glueing, 45 steps. Just GET ONEs that SCREW onto the EXISTING valves!!!!!
Richard is so sloppy with the glue. My seven year old can do better
