Is anyone here good with plumbing? I have a leak on this very old 1/2" iron pipe in the garden. It's directly connected to the water main, so have to fix it to turn water back on. No valves in between where I could disconnect it. Can I just cut below the leak and replace it with steel or PVC pipe? How would I fit the new piece on the old one and keep the pressure?

✏️ New on the blog: A Sunday rant about Henry Ford, AI search results and building better horses for your users.

Google's AI search results are like that Henry Ford "faster horses" quote, but instead of the automobile you get donkeys on LSD
