Joining copper pipes without connectors?

[Guy King]

The message from [e-mail] contains these words:

takes you to a picture of a thing for doing a g***se to a pipe.

from the berk who wanted to use a brake pipe flaring tool to save 4p on a straight coupler LOL come back whet you've done a few houses up and I'll tell you all about value ;-)

[manatbandq]

No idea. I'm browsing google during my idle moments at work.

Whatever makes you think I wanted to use it? Fantasy to the rescue eh?

Thanks very much. Feel free to educate me anytime.

scratch the last reply, well, the bit about the OP and the brake pipe flaring kit. you'll have to excuse me, v. late nights, v. early mornings plastering in one room & painting in another, running one business and organising the startup of a LTD company .. I dont really have time to get into arguments with snipers like you.

[Mike Halmarack]

It's all of little consequence. The only reason I'm posting here is because I'm not currently busy. If I had anything of any significance to do right now, I'd be doing it.

[Chris Bacon]

Well, just pipe down, then.

[.]

you have a life. you have downtime and you're snping on usnet ?

go out, there's a whole world out there.

[Mike Halmarack]

So do the folks on death row. It's quality that matters.

The only sniping I do is on eBay. I recently bought a water heated chrome towel rail using this method. Wish I hadn't though, it's got dents in it. I'm going to have to unsolder the joints to rotate the bottom rail and put the dents to the back.

I can't think of a better reason for staying in. Still, it's a good job we're not all the same eh?

[Mike Halmarack]

Yes, I find this helps. I usually try to limit it to evenings though.

[Phil Addison]

Nothing wrong with that link, it's your end that needs sorting.

Phil The uk.d-i-y FAQ is at

Google uk.d-i-y archive is at NOSPAM from address to email me

[Chris Bacon]

That's a bit personal.

[Mathew Newton]

It's nothing to do with DNS, but rather Angelfire's monitoring of the HTTP referrer to try and stop images they host being used on other people's websites. In this case it appears to be a bit flaky.

For those affected try copy-and-pasting

into a new browser window (i.e. don't click the link) hence no referrer will be sent.

I think it's at Angelfire's end. They're sulking 'cos I'm using Google.

Copy-and-paste the link into a new window and you'll be fine.

Nope! it was inacessible at the time of it being posted.

Copy-and-paste the link into a new window and you'll be fine.

I did test this earlier from Google on another Windows PC and it worked ok. so Id be really interested to know if C+P works for you, and if so are you using Norton firewall.
