Why bust out the threader when you saved all those thread protectors from the last job?

"Now listen here. Boss says no more trips to the supply house today, and I ain't coming back next week. Get er done with what we got on the truck!"

- project lead on Friday afternoon

I only did that because of the drawer.

Damn. Those are thread protectors. Wow.

Someone took the advice on the service calls thread and got a nipple caddie. I don’t think the point hit home quite the right way tho…

I don’t think those are thread protectors. I think those are couplings used to hold 10’ sticks together during transport

Damn. Don’t cut the stub out and re do the trap adapter. Who’s got time for that?

We call them thread protectors and the 21'ers have them on one end too.

I concur. I always worry about one coming off driving down the highway and bouncing off the road and busting someone’s windshield.

That’s why I haven’t bought a piece of black iron or galvy in 20 yrs. I’m scared of the thread protectors falling off.

It’s all copper now breh. I braze or flare. The younger kids use the gas press fittings.

I dont see anything at all on that replacement cut off valve. Even on the flared fitting FTW. Load em them tools boys, cause we is outta here...............

I probably would’ve cut the pipe off coming out of the wall and installed a sch40 trap.

SMH! If you left it like it was you would have a guaranteed drain call every three months! Didn’t you learn anything from the story about the goose and the golden egg?
