I love the videos, I especially like the paying customers. They all seem to like your work and you very much. What's better about you is your knowledge skill set your not just a plumber your an electrician and a gas fixer as well which means no waiting around for other tradesmen to do their stuff, you do it all. And then there's the dog she is just so relaxed and placid. As for the way you treat your chickens, in winter, for example, you provide an expensive electric heater to keep them all warm all day long. Next is the car it's just beautiful, you have an eclectic range of hobbies my friend which shows your talents to perfection. Love the work, the videos, and all the information about yourself you share with us all. Your customers seem to be pals and not just paying customers.

I like to solder and the looks of it. However, it's a major PITA and takes a ton of time. You can propress type-m copper using a stiffener brass inserts. I'm almost at a point where Im going to make a leap and get propress setup. Propress fittings used to be very expensive compared to the regular sweat fittings, but now the price is almost the same.

That's what I thought too but I figured as the tube was thin and glycol was old and acidic, Steve made the right call to make it all new to avoid a possible costly call back. But if I was doing a Joe Homeowner special, I would have hosed it off and reused it.
