Right on, my one-legged friend.

I dont see a lawnmower! I had just pulled it in from outside where I washed it in 20* weather. Got it inside so it could dry and waxed it.

Ok the pipe is schedule 80 and the first part of it is metal until the valves which will stay closed unless being used, max 150psi from the compressor and regulators and psi guages are installed so that tools are not overpowered, the schedule 80 may not be the best idea but for 10 bucks ran all that was needed and had 2--10' sections leftover, the little bit of metal pipe from the compressor to the valves was $30 IIRC


Pretty sure we wont have any problems, and one line goes to a reel hung up that has 50' of line and the other goes to the side door to an attachment for the 25' line that will go to the side yard.

There's an old saying, "Stupid should hurt". I bet you're the kind of person who will use a rolling chair as a ladder when changing an overhead lightbulb as well.

What's wrong with using a rolling chair as a ladder to change a lightbulb? It's a good way to do it because you just have to kick off the wall and grab the bulb while you're spinning. Gotta avoid that carpel tunnel syndrome.

It takes a certain level of skill to master.
I'm not there yet.
A friend of my dads tried it once and broke his shoulder.
I think I'll practice some more before I get you that video.
