I want to replace the hose bib outside because my water hose is not able to connect to it due to the size + it's in a tight spot as it's right on the brick (bad placement by builder). I bought an elbow extender but the connector on the bib is too large.
I tried using a wrench to twist it off but perhaps I am doing it on the wrong part as it's not budging. You can see from the photos all I was doing was scraping the copper off.

I went to put on new bath sink trap, found the tailpipe is 1-1/4" iron, soldered into cast iron pipe in wall. The tailpipe end had become corroded and the short bottom rim broke off, leaving just the larger rim. What is a way to attach new trap without my having to heat up the soldered pipe to get it out & replace? Thanks to anyone with a suggestion that helps...
