Hi everyone,
​
I'm a first time home owner, feel free to roast me. I have no experience other than looking at this subreddit and youtube videos. My water stopped working a few weeks ago and I had a plumber come out and he changed out my pressure switch and was able to get my water running, but he told me my pressure tank was shot and advised me to replace it as soon as possible before my well pump fails. He quoted me $1800, but I wanted to do it myself mainly because I would be able to justify buying the tools to do it, which I wanted.
​
I was able to change it this weekend, but ran into a few problems. The one that is bothering me the most is Home Depot had the wrong instruction manual uploaded for this tank, which said it would need a 10" long 1" Tee. Turns out, it needed a longer 1-1/4" Tee. I ended up buying a 1-1/4" x 1" Bushing so I can use the Tee I already purchased.
​
I thought that would be the end of the problem, but when I got to installing it, I realized the pressure switch is too close to the tank. None of the internals were touching it, but the big plastic cover that goes over it wont go on properly because it's too close. It's currently on there, but I can't screw it in. I was thinking of either getting a longer nipple and either bending it, or maybe making one with copper pipe and two 45 degree fittings to make an offset, but I'm not sure if that would be a good idea or not.
​
Another way I've been thinking about is that I read about someone who used 30" of 3/4" pipe with 1/4" reducers on both ends to reduce the chance of the nipple filling up with sediment and to make sure his switch doesn't get wet if it crawlspace floods. That could work here, because 30" would make the pressure switch sit above the tank. And then it wouldn't be a clearance issue.
​
Other than that, I had to temporarily use 2 sharkbites for where it connects to the well, and where it connects to the rest of the house. There is a threaded elbow where the water comes into the house. My plan was to just remove the threaded pipe, and put a Pex to threaded 1" fitting there. I couldn't get the pipe to come out, even with a torch. I cut the pipe way too short to comfortably solder (I tried and failed), so I just put a sharkbite on it for now and I'll try again later. If it leaks, it will leak into my sump pump. Also used another sharkbite to connect to the rest of the house, and honestly that was because I was maybe 10 hours in, lazy, and also it kept dripping water so I knew I wouldn't get a good solder joint there.
​
Everything is running again with no leaks, but I want to go back and make sure everything is done right. I'm hoping I don't have to swap out the tank tee, but I'm fully expecting everyone to say I need to switch that out and also did something disastrously wrong.
​
Also, I'm going to add a bypass over the sediment filter, but I'm going to do that after I add a filtration system.

“I would highlight copper as the most critical metal globally given the shortage in the market. We only had 3.5 days of copper stock equivalent at the end of last year,”

Trafigura’s co-head of metals and minerals noted that "the copper price could hit a new record high within the next 12 months owing to very tight stocks, even above $12,000 a tonne."
A junior copper pick to consider is Interra Copper (IMCX. IMIMF) as they recently announced the signing of a definitive business combination agreement with Alto Verde Copper to acquire all issued and outstanding shares.
This is an important transaction as Alto Verde has a significant land package totalling 16,250 hectares with 3 highly prospective exploration assets on the Chilean copper belt.

Notably, the properties are in close proximity to several of the world's largest mines, including Antofagasta Minerals (ANTO), the largest copper mining company & largest mining company in the world BHP Billiton (BHP BHP.ax), Glencore (GLEN), and the second largest mining company in the world Freeport-McMoRan (FCX)
