thanks everyone for the great help... after 3 months of weekend work and some weeknights, the bathroom is done and working and no leaks and life is calm again.

Is it safe/ok to make a 24" length of flex braided supply line using two 12" lines with a brass coupling? My supply valve is 22" from the faucet. Also, my tailpipe in the bath sink has rubber gaskets above and below the drain...should I be using plumbers putty too or is the rubber enough...

last minute suggestions? On my way to the plumbing supply shop in the morning to get materials...any last minute comments from anyone? One quick question- is it going to be ok that my hot and cold stubs are going to be uneven? I'm not too concerned about the look of it as it will be within...

Fubar411- no, not an exterior wall. Vanity would stay, yeah. Redwood- I have minimal room to cut the 1/2 supply lines to tee off of it. Can't fit a hacksaw or rotating copper cutter tool. How do I cut the pipes? A Dremel? And if I hired a pro to do this, what would be a fair price? thanks guys...

Hi- I'm doing a remodel and changing a single bathroom vanity to a double sink. I had planned on tapping off of the supply lines of sink #1 with a double valve, and running flexible SS braided lines from the valves to the faucets, directly above the supply lines to sink #1 and laterally to sink...
