    Years ago I was called to fix a leaking bar sink with 3 bays. I climbed under the sick and could see daylight poking through from where someone stabbed the hell out of the bottom of the sink with an icepick chipping ice from a block of ice. There was 10-12 holes in each sink. The owner told me he would find a better plumber who could fix the leaking pipe. LOL

      Lol, I had the same problem at a bar recently, the cheap-ass owner ask if I can just plug the holes in the 3 bay sink with epoxy. I'm sure he'll be calling again soon. The customer is always right.🖕🖕

    Steve is the master of sink drains. Always exceptional work, and solves problems. Always fun to watch the 'master'.... though used a lot of compression tubular rather than his usual glued pvc in this install.

    I would have used the longer tailpiece on the left to get the pitch better without cutting. Looking good

    Awesome work Steve! True professional. I’ve learned so much from you, even how you use your tools. My wife and I both enjoy watching your channel and I’m constantly saying look how he does that or uses those water pump pliers! I have purchased many of your tools, testing equipment which have certainly helped me with repairs. Thanks for sharing your knowledge!

    Another great video Steve, I invested a bit of money and bought myself a wrench that removes the nut from the original strainers, it's helped me lot's! I would resort to the grinder until I accidentally cut the sink once. I like those strainers you use, they just don't carry them at my (sign and take account) local carrier. Keep them video's coming 💯💥👍☝️👌

      @josh Baker >>> Old plumbers putty it has million uses - many think rubber/silicone seals replaced it years ago, think again... use it & you'll forgive yourself for all those "what the hell" moments that never happened where others didn't use it around wet areas that have issues later on... Some you can tell & reform others are too dull to save a themselves few $$$ in the repair by stripping the job down & applying putty for a long term hassle free fix.
      More than plumbing items just like pipe dope it a wide range of uses from air lines to gas lines to chemical joint sealing for the petrol-chem industry. You ask why? it's a thread locker & sealant in one plus easy to clean off when still when wet...Throw out your ptfe tape/silicone/pipe compounds they've been made redundant.
