  I expect to get to Home Depot today to get a drain extension. I have a fair amount of thinset
  mortar around but I also have some of the cement mix I used to create the original floor pan.

  I did saw off the end of the nipple and the new spout did thread in fairly well. There is a

  I tried the new shower pan floor today and discovered what I had suspected, that the drain is

  I have an ancient sink [1945 edition] that I just installed and I just cannot get the cold
  water faucet to stop leaking. I have replaced the gasket seal twice, and the seat once. I also
