Getting to the ROOT of the problem.
« on: June 24, 2016, 05:26:10 PM »
After lifting a concrete slab with a car on it..the sprinkler pipe under the ROOT finally sprung a leak.
 So to fix it I took it out..the hard way... With a hatchet....
Good thing I was a lumberjack. In a former life, and know how to use an axe...

Uhg, you the man, man.
Laugh at least once a day.
Life  $ucks, then you die.
You are entitled to your own opinions, but not your own facts.
God forces us to live with  non-believers to test our resolve.

Note how close to the concrete I got on the left!
You can just see the white pipe at bottom left of pic, it went down about. 3 inches over 2 1/2 feet before it leaked....Didn't think it could stretch that far.
