At least this materials run is back to the local hardware/plumbing outlet, instead of Home Despot. I know I probably pay more at Aboy, but I dont' care.
At this point, the water delivery is working fine, but I have a drain problem caused by the fact that the sink is 2nd hand. In yet another instance, the folks who removed this sink did me no favors, and I have to replace another part unexpectedly.
Enjoy your plumbing-free day,
Bp

I know you are smarter than pipes...
Merry Christmas to you and yours!
I have found, in my electrical career, that inanimate objects have very few strategies. The main being stubbornness.
Normally, but not always, I can overcome.
We shall see.
Breaking under pressure is another approach successfully used by the inanimate to defeat the frustrated handyperson.
You are a fucking MIND READER sir, I bow to your omniscience.
