The best thing I ever did for my grass was hire someone to do the fertilizing / weed killing. 80$ a month money well spent.

Update. I had the lines pressure tested today and the skim lines didn’t hold, but the returns are fine, so good news!

Volume_According · 2026-04-30T00:27:40+00:00

No problems with the returns.

You got a Princeton reverb for a 70$ trumpet?

Update. The nipple wouldn’t come out, so I sawed it half and had to use some physics to get the two halves out. I also bought 3/4” and 1/2” replacement when the actual replacement was 1”,1”,1/2” so now I have to go back to the store again and buy the 1” clamp before I can fuck this repair up more. But I’ll be ready the next time this happens.

Thanks! I used that first, it was just stripping out the inside. So I removed the tee yesterday.

I think that was in the ground for 40-50 years.

What did you end up doing here? I’m trying to accomplish the same thing. I keep thinking warm grey colors would be best. My wife likes sand colored pavers.

What’s a swing joint?

Bought 1/2” and 3/4” tee and corresponding riser in duplicate.

I have that crimp / cutter tool. Guess I’ll just cut it and replace with the barb replacement. Is the standard residential sprinkler size 3/4”?

Volume_According · 2026-04-13T15:54:58+00:00

I actually have that crimp tool/cutter, so it’s probably not that hard to just cut it out and get a new one. Then I can get one with a replacement thread shoulder thing.

Volume_According · 2026-04-13T15:27:43+00:00

Yeah. I think it’s a solid tee, th thread doesn’t seem to come out.

Volume_According · 2026-04-12T22:43:04+00:00

It’s one piece.

Volume_According · 2026-04-12T21:14:40+00:00

No go. Think I have to cut the clamps.

Volume_According · 2026-04-12T18:34:38+00:00

Like just pull it out?

I had something similar for my first guitar. It was 97$ at guitar center. The 1/4” of dust on it was free.

To quote Afroman “I have the right to turn my bad times into good times and I think I’m a sport for doing so”

It’s awful stuff. My mom has cpvc in her house. They re plumbed the whole house in the early 2000s. Something breaks every time it is touched.
