A new subscriber to your vids. Really enjoy watching them. I'm new to plumbing having been in IT for the last 30 odd years. I've always enjoyed doing really basic jobs at home or families such as replacing a toilet/rad/sink/taps etc.. and thought why not learn it proper. Ive just completed a weekend plumbing course and got my L2 diploma. Not sure if I want to pay the extra for the NVQ. But the master plan is to do Gas which I start next month and aim to get Gas Safe registered during the course of next year. Your vids are excellent for guys like me to see what happens in the "real world" rather than what happens in a training centre.

Thanks for the sub mate, I'm so pleased you find the videos helpful, like you say it's OK learning it in a training centre, and they do teach you the rules and regs, but actually seeing it on site and what actually happens is a different thing all together. When I first started plumbing at 16 in 2008, there wasn't really anything like this on the internet to learn from, it would have been really helpful to me, even just to boost my confidence, had there been some real world videos. I also get a lot of enjoyment from making them, and being able to share knowledge and hopefully a bit of entertainment is all I wanted the channel to be

I always tell people I can’t say I’ve enjoyed every job I ever did but I’ve really enjoyed the industry. After 51 years in the engineering construction game as a pipe fitter/ welder I’ve been on some real challenging work but enjoyed the problem solving and passing on my experience. I mentored an apprentice from day one and now at 33 he’s taken over from me in the office as manager. He has a great work ethic, great craftsman and problem solver. I told him a few years ago that I couldn’t really teach him anymore, just give him the benefit of my experience and guide him in routes he may not have been on before. He’s top notch, and I’m really happy to have helped him on his path. He only needs to expand his experience into some of the other trades, rigging and mechanical.

I was so fortunate that I had a great guy who taught me, he passed on so many skills and life lessons, there was nothing that ever fazed him. Without him I wouldn't be where I am today, at the time you don't always apprecaite it, but look back I am so grateful, thanks for the support as always

I hope the bad experience you had during this week was not too traumatic, bad jobs, bad days, bad weeks I’m sure we all get them from time to time. Have a great weekend and as always take care, 🍻👍👍👍

Another great video. Beautiful pipework, as usual. Personally, unlike ordinary pencils, I find the Pico type hard to mislay, as you get into to habit of putting it back in its holder automatically. The built-in sharpener is also very handy. (Being a Festool fan I have the Festool branded version 😀) I find your narration and casual conversation makes your videos highly watchable and very relaxing, and I really appreciate the effort you put into making your videos, on top of doing a full days work!

Great video mate! Got a question if you don't mind. You have to be pretty spot on with the waste for the basin for it to sit inside the pedestal. Do you know the measurements of the basin beforehand or is there a standard measurement? Thanks mate, appreciate it!

To be honest there is always a bit of guess work if you don't have the bathroom suite on site, I normally do mine at 150mm from the finished wall and this normally ends up OK, thanks for watching

Where do you get that sheepwool from Tom or what brand is it? Been meaning to ask where you get the one you can slide over the pipes for about a year now, this video finally reminded me haha! Top video as always mate really wanna get that milwaukee cutter tbh. I've got the old one it just takes too long to cut
@PlumbLikeTom
@PlumbLikeTom 11 месяцев назад
I buy it from my local supplier, I will find out who makes it, the new inox cutter is a vast improvement, that is still the original blade, looking back at the jobs it's done its had a hard life, I did a load of carbon pipe which it isn't designed for and it still cut it, thanks for watching as always

Your peers will know you walked off the job and it will have done your reputation more good than you think. Your builder will know he’s in the wrong just hope it’s not too much of a financial hit.

A couple of points, as always😂😂 Your Waste pipes are connected to the horizontal Soil Pipe. This is not in keeping with the Design of a Single Stack Soil Vent system. All waste pipes should connect to the Vertical Soil Vent Pipe & have a limited run. Check out any Plastic manufacturers’ design detail/installation instructions. These OX waste pipe cutters are shit, much better with the dedicated ones 40 & 32mm ones. I’d always have a CC WC Soil Pipe pop-up at 90mm centre from the finished wall, however, all bent WC connectors vary. We use Marley or Polypipe. Multikwik ones it’s at least another 10-20mm further back to the wall!! Keep up the good work & don’t let the bastards grind you down👍👍
@PlumbLikeTom
@PlumbLikeTom 11 месяцев назад
You are right about the soil pipe bosses, I had no choice on this job due to levels but I will be using the wirquin waterless trap on the impey shower tray to eliminate the risk of induced syphonage, I always like to get my soil pipes a bit further back, I find it's easier to get over this than having it too far forward, like you say pans and pan connectors do vary, thanks for watching as always 👍
