I finally got the nerve to replace my own kitchen faucet last Tuesday.
It took me 3 hours and a trip to the hardware store for a basin wrench, but no leaks. Anyone have a trick for getting those old supply line nuts off easier?

Yeah I read somewhere that heat from a hair dryer can help loosen those old nuts... @thomas291 has the right idea with patience though.

That feeling when you finally get a stubborn nut loose is the best. It's like a little win in a world full of stripped screws and rounded-off bolts. A little penetrating oil and letting it sit for ten minutes can make all the difference. Makes you wonder what else in life just needs a bit of patience before it gives way.
