Hey friend, I don't agree in marking both elbow. I'd glue one end first without marking and then I'd mark the second. This will cut in half the possibilities of being off. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Real Name I only showed marking the first album as a way of making this a habit. Of course it doesn’t matter how the first elbow is glued as it can never be incorrect. Thanks for your comment.
Does the cement it need to be on the pipe? I do use this to make bird feeders from PVC pipe but I put the cement on the fitting only as there is less waste as it just coves the area of contact and not past it. Am I doing it wrong ?
@@PatrickGuerrisi yes as long as it’s on plastic any solvent cement will make that joint waterproof. If the water can’t come out from the inside, it won’t go in from the outside.
I tried to fix a pvc elbow to the water pressure supply pvc pipe for my instant water heater , I applied the pvc glue to both end but it doesn't glued ,is it that I apply the glue to both ends ? Your demonstration shown only applied to one end
@@buildingsheriff It is basically glue, but with with the added strength of actually softening the PVC and bonding the plastic together almost like a weld. It's a different from of PVC but at the automation company where I used to work, we'd use WeldOn to bond blocks of PVC together to get a big enough piece to machine certain tooling. If the blocks had slightly different coloration, you could see about a quarter inch line where the two blocks melded into one another. I don't know if the effect is the same on these plumbing bonds (which is actually what I was looking for) but the end result was an inseperable bond that, aside from the occasional coloration thing I mentioned earlier, was indiscernible from a single piece of PVC.
Daniel Clyburn why are you watching if you’re such an expert? This works, friend. I’ve been doing this for 30 years. But thanks for an alternative POV.
@@DanielClyburn Firstly, primer is not really necessary as the adhesive also softens the plastic anyway, making it no more effective with, than without. Secondly there's no point adding the adhesive to parts that won't touch. Obviously (?). The adhesive comes into contact with all necessary parts. No offense but you sound like someone who wants to pick faults but has no idea what they are talking about. Don't be _that_ guy.
Thank you! You're video was so easy to understand and follow!
Thanks this was really useful 👍🏻
I have the same shirt! Also, thanks for the tip!
Like the idea of a normal saw, tried a hacksaw this morning and it cuts on an angle without realising it.

Hi there! Hope you'll notice me. Is that solvent cement prevents water leakage? I'm also using pvc pipes.
Yes it is.
Does the cement it need to be on the pipe? I do use this to make bird feeders from PVC pipe but I put the cement on the fitting only as there is less waste as it just coves the area of contact and not past it. Am I doing it wrong ?
Yes, weather on the pipe or the fitting. Both work.
does solvent cement waterproof it? for putting conduit under ground for example?
Yes it does.
@@buildingsheriff ah cool . Do I just get any type of solvent cement? I need to put some conduit under my garden bed and can't allow water to go in it
@@PatrickGuerrisi yes as long as it’s on plastic any solvent cement will make that joint waterproof. If the water can’t come out from the inside, it won’t go in from the outside.
Thanks !

Both ends, yes.
Does connecting too many pipes at a time in a large configuration weaken the cement solution due to the weight?
Danny Taylor Not at all. Cement is just the terminology used for this product. In essence it’s just glue.

How long to dry this before using the pipe
60 seconds! It goes of very quickly indeed.
Can I glue a stew thread elbow to a straight cut pipe?????
SCREW
@@nikiguymer5840 Not so that it won’t leak!
How would you separate without breaking. Mabey heat
I’m afraid it can’t be done.
Is this method appropriate for exterior use joining lengths of guttering and downpipes/elbows?
Absolutely! Any plastics.
Iv sniffed every glue on the market this isn’t one of em 😂
Oh, it works all right!
We provide complete pipes & plastic joining, sealing repairing solution for pvc pipe, plastic item and specialized tape.
Is this stuff toxic to birds?
Watching this as I have destroyed water supply for my entire apartment by breaking pvc pipe off main supply line xD
I broke a pipe and here I am guys
yippe something DIY I could do.ha.thanx
1:35 watch your face.
😁🤳
That's a WASTE of pipe and elbows
No primer? Didn't put the cement on the fitting? So much wrong with this...

Fair point.
