If you look closely at the print on PVC pipe you'll see that they switched to a different camera angle, filming it from the other side. Instead of showing the different angles, cus f-honesty, they just mirrored that part of the video to make it look like it's all one big time lapse

​@@JimTomatoreYep. Hard to spot. A bit of a relief, though, I was left considering they must possess some kind of magic to succeed on any level threading something in reverse.

Thank yall for mentioning this. I knew what I saw was impossible physically. And no. No plumber would ever do that. 🤣

Dad can’t we just buy an entire new tap? “Son, let’s see what we have lying ‘round in the shack.”

I thought it was a pretty clever solution. But I concur with Meh276. I'd run to the van, and lay rubber. Lmao

The tap IS the tap! That’s some tap inception right there.

I want someone to make an entire house using all of these methods. Then have it on a 24/7 livestream so everyone can watch how fast Murphy's Law proves true.

20 psi of pressure will make that shit leak lol. If it even pressurizes the whole system.

No threads left to seal

Well, it didn't leak😂 Now you just have to make it back to the truck before it starts.😂

Wrap er 6 times, it'll get some traction

The best part is they first had to flare that white pipe out to fit the green one.

It was probably made that way.

This is the IDGAF special before you go bankrupt.

Lol I love it...."or you could just go get the correct fitting" Yep.

Getting the right part sure would be faster lol

Best part is the real part to adapt this cost way less than whatever they spent on making this video in parts and labor! Good call out as usual!

Yup, looking forward to the mess that makes when it gets cold… Previous owner of my house was full of great ideas like this

I hear the cry of millions of plumbers dying in agony.

I love that there’s literally a female 3/4” fitting at a hardware store for 3 dollars but the guy in the videos like nahhhhh and does this weird reducing diy tap combo 😂

looks like a great idea when the zombies come and all plumbing stores are closed and you need a valve asap.

KZread dropping knowledge on me again. I find plumbing and construction of any kind so fascinating. You obviously have to have skills. Why some young people don’t want to work in construction jobs I don’t get. It’s the college of life!

makes me question my entire apprenticeship and thirty years in the trade

The handyman of my landlord was exactly this kind of guy. He wasn't a good handyman but he could bodge anything and make it work for a few more hours.

The best part of it is the fact there’s a threaded pvc fitting at the wall.

There’s a difference between solving a problem and simply buying the correct tool or item for the job 😂

Ladies and gentlemen when it's advertised as military grade, this is what they mean.

Looks like something my grandfather would've done. He was always rigging stuff up. After he died I bought his house and completely remodeled it. I found extention cords in the walls running the outlets and a water hose was one of the water lines

Gotta repair like you're expecting someone else to come look at it sometime and understand what you did, this is just wild

Anyone else notice they ran it in 2 different ways?
