Garden updates - Poly repair Part 1

Oops...sound of rushing water near the garden shed after connecting the poly line that feeds the cottage garden and turning on the local tap at the back of the house.

This is where she sprung a leak and it's simply due to me doing a workaround which has come back to bite.

The repair is already done, this is a 'after' photo as there was too much water to take a 'before' photo.










This is what came back to bite me, I used a T connector where I should have used a right angle connector because I ran out of the latter. To make a right angle I used a short bit of poly on the other end, crimped over and cable tied - FAIL

All because I was to lazy to trip down to Bunnings  and buy a packet of right angle connectors.
This is my poly kit which includes common nozzle and spray jets.One of the most important items is that piece of bent wire in the bottom left corner for cleaning blocked jets. It's noodle box wire and yes...I save the wire handles from noodle boxes..
