No bathroom is complete without a....

I finally installed the toilet. Overall it was pretty easy although the bolt that holds it to the floor kept coming out of the flange slot. Whenever I have to tighten something I usually tighten it too much. In plumbing I noticed you usually only tighten things just beyond hand tight. They'll say something like hand tighten and then 1/4 turn beyond. However for the toilet, they said, "tighten but not too tight so that you don't break the porcelain". Can you get any more vague? You want to make sure the toilet is secure but go too far and you break the toilet.


Here's the drain with the flange on it. On a side note, our A/C is finally working again in the house. We've spent the last two nights without any A/C. The temp in the house would get up to 87.
