had this to say: R formulated the question : yep But only if you could be described as competent to do that. Actually it would be better to replace the T-piece with an elbow, but again this will depend on the competence of the OP. TBH the OP's question does rather bring into question his competence, although I do recognise that competence does not equal knowledge of the regulations nor the ability to wield a spanner correctly. -- Frank Erskine |

Then I took a statistics course and now I don't." "Sounds as if the statistics course helped." "Well, maybe." |
