Plumbing has come along way over the years. I work at the VA medical center and we have a few freeze machines that will freeze a line without a valve and we use a Pro Press to crimp the fitting on. We also have a Add A valve that bolts to the copper and cuts a whole in the line to temporarily shut it off until you install a valve. Shark bites are good for certain situation but not with anything that you don’t need movement. I have a B tank with a rose bud tip for soldering along with a oxygen and acetylene tank for silver soldering or brazing. Pex is also getting more and more popular over copper in new homes. We do all the plumbing, pipe fitting and maintenance with 3 guys with over a million square feet. We stay pretty damn busy! Great videos for new ideas, I’m always willing to learning new things and sharing with others!

Thanks, I'll be using the dye in the toilet tank idea and also the sandpaper or pumice stone in the bowl tip. There is a steady dripping into the toilet bowl but the tank never seems to lose water? I've replaced ALL the guts in the tank including the rubber gasket between the tank and the bowl and still have the constant dripping or water lines on the inside of the bowl coming down from the top of the rim. I live alone and no one else uses my toilet. When I get home from work and look in the bowl there are wet water lines running down the bowl. I got nothing.

Many thanks! Love drilling small holes before using a large hole saw. Drilling a bunch of large holes will wear you out - even with a handle on your drill.

You don't need wet/dry sandpaper for hard-water stains on porcelain. There's a pumice stone specifically for removal, called 'Scouring Stick' made by Pumie. They're ~$3 at home-improvement stores, and last for *years* cleaning normal toilets. They're softer than the porcelain, and won't scratch/damage it.

@la196

I've heard the same concern about sandpaper (or pumice) on porcelain. Since the stain is at the water line, it's hard to get the vinegar where it's needed. I drain down the bowl, then put paper towels wetted with vinegar along the water mark, above the drained-down water line. Give it a few hours, to break up the scale, then scrub it down with a toilet brush, or worst case, a melamine sponge / Magic Eraser

Awesome tips, thanks for sharing them.

2:42 should only be worst case scenario. you could turn off the main valve and change the „broken“ one. and right after this sequenc, you should use a second wrench to hold the hose so it doesn’t turn the hole hose (so it don‘t get to much torque on it, usually they snap easier) that is the only thing i am complaining about! good video thank you i have learned some good things from your vid. iam a plumber from austria (europe) so sorry for my bad english and if you have questions it would be nice to get in contact!

If you have a drip on a pipe that won't stop, get some cheap old white bread and stuff it into the pipe a ways up. The bread will absorb the water, act as a dam. Afterwards, when the water is turned on the cheap bread will just turn into mush and be flushed out. Works awesome.
