The new pipe Tom installed |
pipe. Last weekend, Tom noticed that the metal pipe was wearing thin. So, after a trip to Lowe's he worked with our friend Will to replace it with PVC pipe.
As always, it was a perfect job (look at the photo right). I (Rob) wish I knew how to do those things! So, if you don't, I recommend marrying an architect because he knows how things come apart and go together.
The PVC, or plastic pipe won't corrode or thin, like the metal pipes do. So, next time you're under your kitchen sink looking for something, look at the pipe.
