So you will want thread/thread for the return and slip up top and thread on the bottom of the drain

Why does my plumbing feel flimsy at bulkhead its the right siza and everything but the plumbing jiggles and easily falls off is it cuz it needs glue?

You need pvc primer and cement unless you want to see a puddle on your floor. The only thing you don't cement is the durso.

Primer is the purple stuff. You would need glue also. They sell some that is both primer/ glue if that is easier for ya.

*Put something down tho that purple primer stains surfaces instantly... its like an acid trust me I dropped some on our linoleum and it won't ever come out.

 

[bleox]

Yeah idk wtf pvc primer is lol would u recommend the mixed one or should I do primer then glue

[BeanMachine]

Mixed one is less hassle.

 

[bleox]

Cool thanks will do that could I use that pvc primer and glue for the rest of the glueing?

You could do it either way. if you already have the two part just use that instead of buying another jar of all in one.

 

[bleox]
