    Drain not lining up with new tub
    House is 30yrs old black PVC "pipe" new drain hole for new tub is almost 2"to the "left"of actual drain in "hole".. I know just cut the pipe and move it .... but it looks like the connection we have to go back to ..to cut is embedded in the cement slab.. so any one have any "great" ideas... of course everything is the big U shape so it's not like just reconnected pipe...
