Indeed. Hard to believe I made it to 49 years old, have owned 3 houses since I was 20 and this was the first toilet I ever replaced.It is always good to have someone to consult with.
Much easier then I expected...anticlimactic really!
I've made many home improvement projects based on yt videos. It was much more difficult in the olden days to learn new skills. It was mainly books and from other people. Nowadays there are countless instructional videos for pretty much anything. Heck I even learned how to tile my very first shower and bathroom from yt.
Thank goodness for both!
