Great thread here
https://terrylove.com/forums/showth...n-Pedestal-Sink&highlight=angle+supply+solder
I've always done 90 degree hard brass on copper inside the walls with chrome nipples on renovation.
For sinks with cabinets, I've come out with copper stubs, and then usually will solder a angle stop on them (thinking sweat angle stop is 100% solid vs a compression angle stop).
On the thread referenced above....not quite sure what the preferred/professional method is.
Pro's. When is a compression stop more applicable than a sweat angle stop?
My biggest grip about sweat stops is that because I like things to be relatively flush, I usually have 2 pieces of the fire retardent backing on the backside of the cabinet just to make sure everything is all hunkey dorey ....
