Wouldnt you know it? Just when my night is looking up (kids bed times are an hour away), I find out my oldest son rinsed and jammed solid food particles etc. down the kitchen sink instead of scraping them into the garbage before washing them. I am now sitting here waiting to hear back from a friend on whether or not they have a pipe wrench I can borrow, because the clog is, I hope anyway, in the elbow.





AAAAUUUUURRRRRGGGGHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Toilet plungers clear those pretty quickly without the pipe wrench.
Most of the time anyway.

Not this time lol, i tried it first. I finally got it cleaned out about half an hour ago. Found over 2 cups of rice, skin off of meat, etc etc etc. My son is going to just love his Saturday afternoon this week :smile: I have to get some bondo and reseal a thin leak in the trap when I get paid Saturday, then he is going to be starting to scrape the old paint in the fellowship hall of my church in preparation of my painting the walls.

That reminds me when my then tiny son tossed a small aluminum pudding can in the toilet and of course it caught in the utrap. After trying everything we could think of finally took the toilet compleately apart figureing we are going to have to buy an new fixture we sorely could not afford at the time. Then he walks out into the back yard slips his small hand deftly in the trap and plucks it out. He could not quite understand why we were not equally thrilled he found his treasure "no bye-bye".
