the rat was a passenger i found, he immediately met his maker via a collision with a pipe wrench.

fitting in most driveways, not so easy.

c'mon guys post some pics,,,,
ideas on van shelving/storage??
how you store your fittings??
you should be using that digital camera on the job....shows hidden clean outs, nailplating (had sheetrockers remove then damage pipes), used it to locate a trap primer that sheetrockers covered, etc.

Chevy T-6500 20 foot box, with 1600# lift gate, 7.0 liter gas motor 4 speed allison transmission, 4.7 mpg...woohoo...I got it from the local auction yard for $14K it had 112K miles on it but runs great. No interior pics yet...need to have a little more time off to get it back to picture worthy...lol it was owned previously by King County Library.

Here is some pictures of past work.
Main 4" PVC water line for a trailor park. Found old hydrant leaking at base, that puppy was expensive, $1000. Fixed and backfilled was all extra.

Nice, when i was an Air Force Plumber, we did alot of utility work, fire hydrants, main line prv's, altitude valves, etc....lots of fun...not too bad if you have a good backhoe operator.
