The New "What did you do with your Z today" (with off topic replies) III

so last night after supper i helped wife do some kitchen sink mod...

she was trying to do it herself by hand and could not get some of the bits off.

first off i hate plumbing. i dont know how to do it. i hate pipes to begin with. but this job had nothing to do with pipes other than getting around them to get to these built-in soap dispensers she wanted removed (2 of them) and capped.. so i went ahead and played along cause i owed many browney points.

i dont have any plumbing tools... for car related tools i have a full case and then some. i look at for plumbing tools, i only have like duct tape...?

anyway, i brought the channel-locks and a screw driver and some other tools that looked like wat plumbers use

and duct tape... just for the macho effect.

i had to lay down in the cabinet below the sink as if was doing the steering lock mod.

okay, felt right at home

. then i had to remove these dispenser locking rings below the sink which the plumber kingkong'ed torqued. wtf.. my channel-locks dont fit. duct tape is useless. so i had to godzilla release it with tools that aren't for plumbing (heavy duty long nose pliers

).

conclusion: car tools > plumbers tools.

anyway, i got it off and finished to job.
