Ok need some #plumbing advice. I removed the toilet. The problem is really the drainage pipe. It's an older house and the pipe is made out of cast iron. It has been rusting. This is causing two problems: 1. The lip if the pipe has rusted away so that there's a hike between the pipe and floor. 2. One of the bolts which the secures the toilet use supposed to be caught by the lip if the drainage pipe so that it doesn't move add I can fasten a nut. Because the pipe is rusted, the bolt isn't secure and twists everytime I try to fasten the nut. I feel like for 1, I could stack two wax rings and cover the hole. For problem 2, I have no idea. Any suggestions for either problem? Should I call a plumber or just send it with two wax rings and only one bolt securing the toilet? #asknostr

I gotta clean up some poo water and fix a poo bucket, #bitcoin dumping like a fat kid after 8 Taco Bell Crunch Wrap Supremes, and the AI bubble is ballooning like the BIS president at an all you can eat Golden Coral Buffet! But it's all good cause I'm gonna grow my generational stack! #FeelsGoodMan #grownostr #plebchain #bitcoin View quoted note →

Send it, stack them rings and then single bolt and adhesive caulk around the whole toilet so it won’t move or let out odors. Take your plumber money and stack some sats.

I like the nonsense speech of it. "Kick me some sausage, yes yes gulp gulp"
If you're having trouble with whatever you bought, that twist and set repair flange is is great for getting a good compression fit without relying too heavily on the floor mounting, your new flange becomes one with the old pipe pretty much which makes it really solid.
