    Footer full of water - questions??

    Get yourself a couple of submersible utility pumps and garden hoses and pump out the water settling in the footer. You cannot pour a concrete footer with water in the trench.

    Double flaring

    FYI Aircraft AN fitting flare angle is 37°, not 45°. Possibly explaining the use of Imperial Eastman tubing tools in the aviation field. They seem to be the only manufacture of 37° flaring tools.
