I have put it off and put it off but now it is time to tackle the shower drain. It looks to be brass and sturdy. Applying a little heat, pressure and good 'ole elbow grease I get the first piece of. This is the piece that lays flush with the shower floor tile. I can't seem to budge the next piece, which is flush with bathroom floor (actually it was a little lower to create some semblance of a slope).
After 2 days of messing with that I get it off. I am trying to decide whether to jack hammer the slab (really not interested in doing that) or replacing this older assembly (guess which one I choose).
Step 1 get new drain assembly:
Head over to Ace hardware, because I know Lowes doesn't have it. Ace has less. However, helpful employee says try Locke supply. Duh. Why didn't I think of that. But that will be tomorrow.
It's tomorrow. I head over to Lock in Midwest City. "You have a shower drain assembly". "yep." "Do you have a non-PVC drain assembly?" "uh.....no.....Try...Norman Supply". I call them and guess what. They don't have anything like that either. I guess in the 40 years everyone decided to throw out all their old brass drain fixtures. So it is off to jack hammer slabs.....
