Thanks so much for the info!! What kind of flex pipe did you use? Was it fairly easy to work with?

I am really digging the drop off you have going
I would recommend not connecting all the drains together. The point of this fail safe system is that if one pipe gets clogged you still have 2 back ups. If you connect them all together and they clog at the point where you connected all of them together you will have a swimming pool in your house.
