Re: Nice plumbing!
I like how they butchered the brace to make it fit, but then still used a zip tie and a hose clamp.

Re: Nice plumbing!
So nice, much better performed than the original plumbing from my 1877 summer house. ... . ...

Re: Nice plumbing!
I tried to throw an offer at this seller, but they don't accept offers under $100, so I think I'm priced out for this one.

Re: Nice plumbing!
You may want to rethink that. This is an artisanal product.
It almost looks like random markings, but a sort of similar decoration is visible on the exterior in the first picture.

Re: Nice plumbing!
So, the bell’s been rolled out after somebody did the Mexican Hat Dance on it. Gotta hand it to them. Certainly did improve the overall cosmetics!

Re: Nice plumbing!
It would be interesting, assuming a mouthpiece fits well and they are no leaks, if it ends up being better than the original lead pipe!

Re: Nice plumbing!
Well, it is now a “floating” lead pipe, for added resonance. And it appears to be pure copper, so no red rot! After all, no zinc, no de-zincification!PlayTheTuba wrote: ↑Wed Feb 14, 2024 10:44 am It would be interesting, assuming a mouthpiece fits well and they are no leaks, if it ends up being better than the original lead pipe!

non-sarcastic comment:
I'd choose that - 100-to-1 - over leaky valves.
