Plumbing is in and 50% done

We regrounded the house to where the copper water pipe comes in from under the street. We cut the copper pipe disconnecting the house plumping. That was that - no turning back. We installed the whole house shut-off valve and installed the pex to where the pex manifold will go on the concrete wall. I painted the wall with drylock. I installed a T and more pex to a brand new 50 gallon electric water heater - which I moved to a convenient spot *for me*. Since all the plumbing is new, I don't have to put the water heater where it was - I can put it where I want it, so it went in the corner. The connections are purchased, the special orders have arrived and now I am just going to wait for the second coat of varnish on the floors to finish the plumbing.
Really getting there!
I LOVE the Pexcaliber crimping tool. Absolutely LOVE it. I also love the name. I'm cheesy like that.
