Fitting a bath - waste pipe connection...

[stoobloo]

Am fitting a bath (single ended) which will fit in to the corner of the bathroom.

What's a workable order to 'do things' in terms of - Fit the bathwaste and overflow (first), fit the trap to the waste (second), then levelling, positioning etc - how do you measure and cut/fit the pipe (I'm using solvent weld pipe) when the bath will make it awkward to access underneath it?

Any tips, or guides anyone could recommend would be great.

Personally, I'd fit the waste, overflow etc, then get the bath positioned as you want it. Once that's sorted, and set to the right height, fit your trap and work away from that. Assemble the pipework dry, mark positions on pipe/fittings, if need be remove bath once waste pipe positions are set, only glue once you're happy.
