Very nice work Travis, your skills are getting better with each project. as far as getting the supply water pipe square vertically, it's a simple matter of cutting off a bit of pipe & rethreading a bit more.

Thanks, @SPS!


I have shorter pipe nipples, should I try that? The bushing hole is still not flush but I suspect a shorter pipe nipple should help.

I am going to graduate next time to using copper pipe, though the soldering is a real son of a gun, at times.
