I've done both tons of times but was looking up threads for a recommended reaming tool and came across some notes.....I think I'm going to pick up the case harded Ridgid...
In a pinch, I've just use file or utility knife if the cone shaped reamer was not on hand for pvc.
Always have use the built in on the tubing cutter on copper.
For all you pro's out there, do you guys ALWAYS ream pvc or not. Couple pro's on that thread said they never did.......
Now this one has got me really confused. Do you flux both sides or the male fitting only.
I'm guilty of doing both.
There was a blurb on how if fluxing only the male, it prevents overfluxing/over solder which I suppose does make sense in theory
