Hey everyone, I am really hoping to be able to do this DIY, hoping you guys might have some advice.
Here are some pics of the current plumbing for the single sink:

(My husband is a carpenter so he has some knowledge about some plumbing things but this particular project he hasn't done before.)
Okay so I see that the main drain (I think) is PVC, the trap is PVC, and the two water pipes are copper.
What all would I have to do in order to add the second sink to the left of this one? The toilet is being moved so just ignore that being so close by.
How should the drain hookup look for the second sink? I know how to add in PVC pipes but for the copper ones, would we be able to convert the new hookups into those newer PEX red and blue thin flexible pipes? How would we do that? Or would we have to literally solder on copper additions for the water pipes? And how should the layout look in the end for both the PVC drain part and the copper/might-become-PEX water pipes?
Paint drawings/sketches are welcome, any tips are welcome. Thank you!
