    It's so refreshing to see a how to video thats calm, easy to follow, and without any of the usual "Smash that like button" rubbish - Thank you
  • @iggster450
    Perfect video. I just needed one bit of clarification, that both sides of the join needed to have a pipe in, and you gave me that info. Thank you very much. Great video
  • @AJBTemplar
    I have never done soldered joints before. This is really excellent tuition and helped me to do a tricky fix.
  • @robertkemp50
    Really good plumbing video's, with easy to listen to commentaries. I've been DIY plumbing for years on and off and these video's are good reminders on how to do the job properly, thanks.
  • @SuperTone35
    Probably the best video i have watched. Thanks
  • @nathjl86
    Great proper advice! Especially to have both ends in the fitting and heat together. I’m sure that’s caught many people out!! Cheers 👍
  • @amcc2531
    I was always told that as the solder runs towards the heat, you should heat from the pipe side of the joint, whereas the non solder joints you heat the joint and the solder runs into the joint

    Fantastic video mate. Did a night course a few years back to save some money doing this old house up. Just about to fit an outside tap and needed a refresher!
  • @parmar8801
    Excellent video! Attempting this for the first time and you've provided answers to all of the questions I had.
  • @johnadams1976
    Thanks again. Came back to revisit before soldering my next one
  • @snorkherder
    Thank you, I'm about to use those joints myself for the first time :)
  • @Blades-fm6ck
    Nice tip with the tape measure to hold the joint. 👍
  • @markewins9662
    That was a great video. Never used Yorkie joints before, this has been very helpful. Many thanks. 😊
