Having some bother connecting my WC into the existing soil stack.
Original WC was sited right next to soil stack so just had a 90 degree pan connector with ribbed rubber on the end straight into 110mm soil stack collar.
After removing old WC and re-arranging bathroom my WC is now 70cm away from the soil stack. I was going to use a length of 110mm soil pipe then 90 degree pan connector onto WC.
Trouble is, previous owners have removed the seal from the soil stack connection. I removed one from a collar I had and it fitted the soil stack, but no matter how hard I try I cannot push the soil pipe into the stack with the seal in. Filed a 45 degree lead, lubricated, no go The pipe fits fine into other collars I have so I guess it's just a mismatch between seals/fittings.
I doubt very much that I'd get a new seal for my Hunter soil stack connection as all of the modern Hunter stuff is of slightly differnt design (same as collars I have here).
Only other way I could do it is to use 2 or 3 of those extension pieces :

but I was concerned about having too many joints. Would this be considered bad practice?
Any other suggestions/methods?
