Mistake of the day.... I grabbed the wrong pipe solvent when I put the ABS sewer lines together. I had forgotten that I picked up a can of fresh PVC cement as well as ABS, I just grabbed the first can I saw in my shopping box o stuff.

When I went back to my stuff box I saw the can of ABS cement and realized I grabbed the wrong one... The PVC cement did bond pretty well... But since this stuff is all buried I decided to start over. $100 later, I had a new lines and new fittings.

I will use the stuff I pulled out to rout the gutter water to the dry well (another addition on this project).

I dont really care if my rainwater pipes are perfect.

Also this was my first time using a roll of 3/4" PEX. Seems like decent stuff. I ran two lines out to the shop ( hot and cold... Although I will probably use a mini water heater for the hot water. I figured that running a second line cant hurt.

I really appreciate how much work it is to did a perfectly sloped trench. It was a really long day.

I cant wait to get to the fun stuff... AKA framing.
