Re: Nice plumbing!
I like how they butchered the brace to make it fit, but then still used a zip tie and a hose clamp.

Re: Nice plumbing!
So nice, much better performed than the original plumbing from my 1877 summer house. ...

Re: Nice plumbing!
I tried to throw an offer at this seller, but they don't accept offers under $100, so I think I'm priced out for this one.

Re: Nice plumbing!
You may want to rethink that. This is an artisanal product.
It almost looks like random markings, but a sort of similar decoration is visible on the exterior in the first picture.

So, the bell’s been rolled out after somebody did the Mexican Hat Dance on it. Gotta hand it to them. Certainly did improve the overall cosmetics!donn wrote: Sun Feb 11, 2024 2:44 am You may want to rethink that. This is an artisanal product.

Re: Nice plumbing!
It would be interesting, assuming a mouthpiece fits well and they are no leaks, if it ends up being better than the original lead pipe!

Re: Nice plumbing!
Well, it is now a “floating” lead pipe, for added resonance. And it appears to be pure copper, so no red rot! After all, no zinc, no de-zincification!PlayTheTuba wrote: Wed Feb 14, 2024 10:44 am It would be interesting, assuming a mouthpiece fits well and they are no leaks, if it ends up being better than the original lead pipe!

Re: Nice plumbing!
non-sarcastic comment:
I'd choose that - 100-to-1 - over leaky valves.
