A new deeper undermount sink for the kitchen, and the existing piping under the sink is too high and too strange. It's time for a plumbing hack.

It's looking a little strange, but let's take a better look.

Two short 90's before the p-trap. The homeowner never like snaking that mess.

Sawing off the pipe, and then cleaning some of that gunk out.

Drilling out the fitting and gluing in a new section of pipe with a trap adapter straightened things out.

Just a little more direct now. Plumbing Hacks.
I was able to drop the drain to the disposer down by 1.5"
