Getting A New Plumbing Tool?

Oh boy! That new plumbing tool pretty much guarantees a soon to occur leak or plumbing problem, but maybe I' m just superstitious. Chances are better that the leak has already occurred and we' re just finally getting around to fix it. Fair enough, let' s get started.

It seems that every time I go to fix something related to plumbing, I need a new plumbing tool. I have done a fair amount of property maintenance work, but still, the application or installation always works better with the right tool.

The best and most used plumbing tool is the adjustable pipe wrench or what my dad called a  monkey wrench' . Not sure where that came from, I seem to have a memory of a monkey in coveralls pictured with a wrench in his back pocket.

As a final thought, it' s just about finding the plumbing tool that fits the need.
