Transcript
If you saw my last video, you know my sprinklers blew up, and I got quoted a thousand dollars to get some PVC pipe glued together. Whether it was smart or not, I decided to figure out how to fix it myself. But once I fixed it, another section broke. Good. So rank is one, mu tier. Today, we're gonna fix best. Starting off with digging this out. I dug the broken one out along with the rest of them in case anything else happens. I just need to cut off the piece that broke. All these wires stress me out. Now that I've gotten this taken off, I go back to Home Depot. Is this the fourth time that I've been to Home Depot?
