With all that said, OffshoreDrilling OffshoreDrilling are these pipe reamers decent? I want to try to save as much of the main fittings as possible, mainly the toilet elbow and turn the 2" into a cleanout.

Yes. Reed makes the best ones.

Turned the nightstands at my girlfriend’s place into floating nightstands since the new mattress we bought was much thicker and the nightstands were short.

I've always lol at friends and family that say, OMG we want or need floating nightstands and or dressers. I ask whats wrong with what you have now, nothing I just want floating ones. I tell them to do exactly what you did. The dumb fucks go out and buy new because they are sold as "floating"

So that dishwasher I rebuilt and finally got fixed and it's been working better than it ever had......

I came in the house and noticed the microwave and stove both flashing power failure...

I knew the DW was mid cycle so I pressed power it usually returns to last mode and keeps washing... Nothing... I knew I smelled something weird last night... I pull the panel off and sparks.. The board burnt up.... And it had to be the power surge because there were no tripped breakers... So I know I had a legit PF...

Wife wanted a taller chair height toilet in the bathroom....

No big deal right?

Well until you unbolt the old toilet and find out the cast iron flange was put together with JB weld and was cracked where the mounts are, so you had to spend hours on the fucking train wreck fixing other peoples fuck ups....

Needless to say the new toilet is in, but what a pain in the ass.

Sometimes I really wonder if renting would be much easier in life. :bowrofl:
Did u miss something? You got married congrats
