All Jim has to do now is look at the pipe and it goes into place.

I've seen a guy use a shovel to put larger pipe together in a ditch

Holy schnikes! That pic brings back some memories of adjusting one of those suckers while running.

One time I had the impact end gun come back at me. Almost blew me off the pivot. And yes, the water pressure hurts.

started this job today. we had to weld the flanges onto the existing pipe that goes under the road. the old system used aluminum pipe that was clamped on and was run above ground.

Have you ever seen one of those aluminum, low pressure farm system's run ? They have serious leak's at every joint.

[greenmonster304]

Yes but they ran this around 100 psi with lots of leaks

Seeing that aluminum bell end brought back some memory's, mostly bad.
