Wow That Was Fast

FYI I am now in the process of fixing the leak in the middle bathroom.  I've been fixing it for three days now; anyone care to guess how THAT'S going?  :wacko:

How's this project going, btw?

 

 

It got worse.  All I needed was a $3.00 set of rubber gaskets, which apparently are unobtanium.  I bought a new faucet, which I took hours to install since the old one was metal and wouldn't unscrew.  I ended up taking vise grips and destroying the old one until it fell off.

 

All ready to hook it up last night.  :)

 

Not able to because I lost a minor plastic compression fitting.  :(

 

One more trip to Lowes ought to do it, which means all I spent was a half dozen trips to Lowes, $150 in new faucet and valves, and when I get done if I'm lucky, it will look and act exactly like the last one, except it won't drip.

 

Then I get to go downstairs and fix the damage to the ceiling and carpet from my last fiasco.  And so it goes...
