How to do wiped joint in lead waste pipe?

[Reg Man]

Is Big brother changing the name "Plumber" to "Plastics"?

I think most in the industry went from being plumbers (Lead Worker) to cuprumers (Copper Worker), Don,t think there will be a latin word for plastic.

Perfectly legal to make a wiped lead joint as long as it isn't in a potable water system.

I wonder what the H&Safety would have to say regarding wiped joints in to days world. Burning myself on a daily basis whilst "Trying"to learning the skill
has turned into a waste of time. Although not the preferred method, has come in handy over the years and saved a few folk replumbing the whole house.
