    Tub overflow on a vintage clawfoot!
    I need a connection for an overflow valve on an old clawfoot tub. I have a british lever fashioned drain kit - but it does not angle enough to match the slope of the old tub. Every part I find to fit goes immediately down at a 90 degree angle - I need a valve that will angle to fit the slope of the tub - but not drop - it needs to go out horizontally to meet the other couplings! I need slope to fit the tub - but a tube that goes out straight and does not drop! Please help!
