I helped Anx move this morning, and headed up in the afternoon to continue on the plumbing. The first thing I did was hang the existing parts. One of the straps needs to be tightened, but that is a minor thing.
I got the bathroom side started, but made an oops. I mis-measured the long pipe. Doh! This is why you are supposed to dry fit check these things...
I mostly worked on the laundry room side though. The trap is in, all these were checked before they were cemented and are correct. I just need to install it, which I didn't do because I was missing a couple of parts.
I didn't realize that the 45's I purchased were only flared on one side, so I needed to go pick up some couplers, and I ran out of pipe, all of which I picked up on the way home. Tomorrow I should finish the laundry room side and hopefully the bathroom, which will be significantly more complex. I am also going to look at and probably pick up a plow tomorrow for my tractor. I will put it on mine and see how solid it is (I expect it will be cringeworthy) but I can also bring it down for Dad to use.
getting there! slow but surely
