What happens here

After multiple attempts, the user successfully installs the newly soldered plumbing assembly into the wall. This requires careful twisting and maneuvering to get the pipes and supports to fit around the existing electrical wire. Once in place, he secures the top and bottom support boards to the wall studs with a drill and screws.

Okay, all right. Well, we got a moment of truth here. Got it all built up and now we're going to get it put in place. All right, it's going. That was tricky, Ricky. Think the whole thing needs to come up a little bit. Okay, perfect. So that's in. Okay, so this is in. Yeah, once that's all screwed down and adjusted, this is all going to work out great and looks like we're going to be able to get in here. Okay, here we go. That sucks. That's the one bomber. I didn't think about cutting those off. So when I measured for the hot and the cold water lines, I measured to the old copper, but that was right where my board for the tub spout was going to be. Where I had actually had my pipes coming down was wrong and it was right by the board. So what I did was I went ahead and I actually soldered this up and gave me space. That way I could put repair couplings right here in an open space. All right, third one. The third. Yeah, the third moment of truth here. Spin around like that. Shuffle, shuffle like that. It goes in a lot easier with weird twists. Okay, this is very exciting. This pipe will move up, this pipe will move up, get all that hooked up in place. So under those last two joints in there, put all these boards in place and we're good to rock and roll.
