Hey, Welcome, queerasfolk. One day at a time is a good thing to do.
On the disposal: Sao, I read that about the oil/WD40. I also looked at the thing. It is really rusted. I mean, rust running over the edge and all the way around the flange. Yeah, I'm not sure how long it's been leaking. I mean, ideally I would have paid closer attention, but drinking and it didn't leak until not too long ago. It's just a little drip - a few drops every time I use the water.
If I ruin the drain/sink by torqueing the thing, Imma hafta buy a sink anyway - and I'd be without a kitchen sink for a week.
I'm leaning toward the new sink and faucet. I mean, even if I have the plumber do just the disposal removal and re-plumb - I'd be looking at $1000 anyway, because you know he would dink around taking it out.
If I put in a new sink, I'm thinking I could call around for approximate quotes first.
I would like a new sink...also just a new kitchen in general, but ya know.
Also (all about me) - Sao - a BABY!!!! How exciting.
