I’m about ready to throw in the towel on fixing leaky shower connections

When I was working we traveled a lot for weeks at a time. One of our technicians traveled with his own shower head. A simple old school Nibco head he replaced the hotel shower heads with.

Sounds like a smart and resourceful fella

Our start-up techs are a special breed. Imagine starting up an entire automotive paint shop with a bunch of GM know-it-all engineers breathing down your neck with launch day approaching.

You are blessed with only the shower head failing.
I just finished installing a new water heater, toilet valve, o-ring on the kitchen faucet and replaced a worn out belt in the washing machine / dryer in my RV.
The sick thing is that I had just replaced the water heater in December of last year and the one that I just replaced cracked at both fittings due to my negligence of not draining it when I went to Kalifornia to bring my mom back here, during that cold spell a few weeks ago.
Smile as you didn’t have more to wrench on.

I’ve done several of those things too buddy. Just not all at once, other things also. Don’t like it but must be done.

Never thought about doing that...

Knew guys that traveled with all sorts of stuff though... I don't know if you could get it through the airport now, but humidifiers and air purifiers for hotel rooms were big. When I went by car, I took a toaster and my own pillow.
