What happens here

Slide the new angle stop onto the copper pipe, making sure the ferrule is correctly positioned before the compression nut. Use the Pasco angle stop wrench to tighten the compression nut. The plumber advises tightening until snug, suggesting not more than one and a quarter turns past hand-tight, to avoid over-tightening which can damage the ferrule or valve.

Goal: Position the new angle stop onto the pipe, ensuring the ferrule is correctly seated, and then tighten the compression nut using the specialized wrench.

That I can get right over here and I can just put that on as far back as it goes. There's not a lot of gap right there, but it's also not stopping this valve from going the whole way on. Okay, we can pop this nut off. We'll pop our bar back on, get it on there, get it closed, and then it will tighten it up. It's always a two handed operation, no matter what, right? Yeah, awesome. Okay, that's on there. Make it and push it now. And it breaks off really easy. And this took me a sec to figure out exactly how to make that work.
