Hello I’m not going to explain this very well but I will try my best. I’m planning on installing a kitchen sick by myself with no plumbing experience. I will be going from a double sink to a single basin. The part im having trouble figuring out is how to put the pipes back together with the garbage disposal now being on a middle drain. My current plan now is to cut the length of the horizontal arm pipe to be shorter to compensate for it moving from the right to the middle of the sink opening. I would then use a 90 degree elbow and a straight coupling to attach to the ptrap. Is this something that makes sense and would work? I’ve mostly seen disposal pipes that attach to the disposal and then go down rather than across like mine would but I can’t figure out how I’d attach that type of drainage pipe to the pipe in the wall. Really I just want to know if my idea will work or if I’ll make future plumbers cry. Thanks!
