Ned, thanks for your advice. What is the best way to attach pex to metal
(copper) pipe?

its going to be real funny when you rot your sill out.
Worst case attach some pex to the thing first then feed it in the hole,
make connection as soon as its feasible. Do yourself a favor and stay
away from goop.

Thanks Charles. Would this be carried at Lowe's and HD, or do I need to
go to a plumbing supply house? Thanks.

Hi everyone. I am replacing my outdoor spigot with a frost-free one.
I need to cut the 1/2 inch copper pipe to connect the frost-free
spigot, and it is in a tough to reach spot. I think I will be able to
get it cut, but then sweating it could be another story. Another user
in this forum posted recently that he used some sort of epoxy to put
copper pipe together in lieu of sweating, and it is going on 5 years
that it has lasted. Anyone know what this epoxy might be, he said he
got it at Lowe's? Or any other ideas in lieu of sweating? Thanks.

copper impregnated epoxy. available in box boxes.

big boxes have it (home depot/lowes/ace) etc. either in the glue/epoxy or
plumbing departments.
