Ken the red portion of the crimp is a pro crimp. It has a built in spacer that I like to use when I can find them. It spaces your crimp about an eighth inch from end of fitting to ensure proper fit.

The red rings are for connecting the fitting and pipe together. The difference between the standard crimp ring and this Pro crimp ring is, this one has a red stop that will hold the ring in place and wont allow it to slip off the pipe. These are called Apollo rings.

Kenstead: For pure egg production you do not need a rooster. Those are only needed if you want to breed and hatch your own chicks. So if that rooster's crowing is becoming bothersome, sending him to the crock-pot or soup-pot is a very good, simple [and tasty] solution.

I see a couple of others have already mentioned the drain vent and you said you will be putting it under the sink. That may work as a vacuum break for the drain but will come with two potential issues. 1- It will allow smells from the waste tank/system to come up into the living space. 2- If/when there is a stoppage in the sink drain, the vent under the sink will effectively drain the sink into the cabinet and the floor. You're much better off with a "sanitary t" where that 90 degree fitting is on your drain line with a 1 1/2" vent going straight up through the roof.

Thanks. I’ve had really good luck with th under sink vents

Not a plumber at all, but have done some house projects with PEX, that little plastic ring is to help keep it in place when put on the pex line. The ones that are just the metal crimp ring have a habit of moving around when trying to crimp them. I have thought of trying the pex cinch rings instead of the crimp ones as the crimp ring tool can take some effort. Mainly when the plumbing connection is an awkward spot, the crimp tool is rough. Good luck on the plumbing. Funny enough my supply line connections have not often leaked in my home projects, but I tend have a devil of a time with drain lines.

On the PEX crimp rings you can position the ring and with pliers just give it a small squeeze. It will then hold it's position for the crimper making it easier to get it it right.... 🙂

Hi Ken, getting close! Remember, it takes as much energy to finish the last 10% as it did to get 90% of the way there. I'm somewhat jealous of your incoming rain, we are in the middle of a heat spell here in the Fraser Valley of BC, Canada, and no sign of letting up.

Pex clamps should be 1/8 from end those are little spacers. If you butt clamps they will eventually leak. The clamp goes in the ribs of the fittings that's why you keep it from the end of the pipe to much or too little will cause failure.

Have you considered making some 2"x8' raised planter beds between your major projects? They are 18" deep, 1' holes drilled randomly in the bottom, lined with black plastic, punching out the drain holes, then about 1" to 11/2" stone, get some good old black dirt and blend in your mulch till you fill them all up. Do them before winter comes so the soil settles . That way you can top them up in the early spring to be ready to plant your veggies. I think they would do your plants much better than those plastic tubs and pails. Bacin the day when we lived on the farm our veggie patch was 50' square. Yes, I planted Okra, good in soups, but NO kale. Just a thought for you between your major projects. I really admire your skills. Mine were never that good. All I ever learned, back in the day, was yard and garden work.

Lyle is doing what roosters do, not what those of us who never had roosters before think they do - crowing any old time he feels like it, not just to announce the arrival of morning. I use the type of clamp for PEX that has a raised area that is squeezed together to tighten the clamp with a tool that can be used with one hand. I figured the two handed model would be difficult to use as I do not have a third hand to hold the pipe and clamp while squeezing the clamp tool with the other two.

Mornin' Ken, Sure enjoy your content, but really miss the comradery with you and the boys. Thanks to Lyle and his input, I'll still find enjoyment in viewing, jut not the same though. This build has been very informative and has me wanting it not to stop. Depending on how tall the buyers are, it might be worthwhile considering raising the sink up a few more inches, thus providing even more access space below the sink. A higher counter top for the sink wouldn't interfere with the space above, since there's the window and no way to place a cabinet there. Just rambling and thinking out loud....... Have a GREAT day Ken, I'll be watching for your next video in the morning.

Will you put in a back board to give the mount of the sink more strength? Will you give them an access hole to fix things if they go bad?

Nice that you found out that they wanted an open sink with no cabinet below. It's great that you can plumb over toward the wall with the open sink.

Lyle is getting to be a real rooster, thus all the crowing. Your hens are going to get really beat up by Lyle. If you don't want more chickens, it would be better if Lyle left. I bet Al and Gina would take him. They have a LOT more hens, and don't live right next to the coop. Those spacers are so you have the required 1/8 inch of PEX sticking out from the clamps. It's not necessary if you just put on the clamps the right way. I'm still curious how you are going to install the pocket door.
