I am renovating my bathroom and it looks like the supply lines are brass (all pipes are screwed into fittings). I have 2 questions:
1) In general, if I need to modify the pipe runs can I just cut/sweat like copper?
2) Specifically, I have to build a 2x3 non-bearing wall and the shower supply lines come down from above. Is there an acceptable way to install the wall top plate "around" these pipes or do I need to cut them, install the framing and then drill holes and re-run the pipes? The 2x3 is probably too narrow to notch.
Thanks for all your help!
