Where did you buy the elbows. I can't find the style with the flat edge on the side

Never run the the threaded end of your two hole bolts from the back side of the flange. Thats a bad habit that you will eventually regret big time, because you will tack the flange on in a tight area and wont be able to get the two hole bolts out. Always run the threaded end, in from the flange face side.

At least a 1/16th gap between the pipe end and where it bottoms out in the socket right? It was kind of hard to see is the video@
