  • Installed a countertop water cooler for our reverse osmosis system
    1 month ago by granworks Installed a countertop water cooler for our reverse osmosis system. I tapped into the existing line to the fridge. It took some 1/4" poly tubing plus a tee adapter and a coupler with a shutoff. Super simple! . . .  #plumbing   #brio   #reverseosmosis

    3 months ago by granworks My very first soldered copper pipe! It's terrible, but I expected nothing else for my first time. . . .  #granworks   #soldering   #copper   #needpractice 
  • Made a prop scythe with my son for his Grim
    4 months ago by granworks Made a prop scythe with my son for his Grim Reaper costume. It's just scraps of PVC pipe and XPS foam; shaped, hot-glued, and painted. Super simple but effective. . .  #granworks   #halloween   #prop   #diy   #costume   #hotglue
