Puzzle Description:

The slip joint pliers. I had to repair my slow draining basin drain. I pulled out my slip joint pliers and stuck my head under the sink and saw the worst exhibition of plumbing in the history of man. A series of J-bends and P-traps snaking down with no possibility of me removing a trap to clear the drain. Luckily they put a clean out at the bottom of the final P-trap. I managed to pull out some Q-tips and hair clips and other muck and " voila" it drains good again.

Nice puzzle. Those slip joint pliers are one if the handiest tools ever made.

Good job plumber Al!

Thx everyone. Plumbing isn't as hard as you might think. If you can get past your fear that you can't do it. You'll find it fairly basic. If shown how,I'm sure a lot of you could do it. Niki said she wanted to watch me when I did it. When I was ready I said to her "ok are you ready to learn how to do this?" She said " I already know how to do it. I just want to see what clogged it." I told her next time it gets clogged she can unclog it. :)

Try a trap for all those foreign objects!

Thx Blackcat. Yes it is hard to see. The red is the handle and the green is the plier mechanism. :)

A trap to stop things from getting trapped in the trap. Not sure why I didn't think of that Jota darling,but I'll try it.lol. :)

Thx Teresa. I hope you used goatee logic to solve. :)



Thx Travis. Inflicting my buttcrack on your poor eyes would just be wrong Travis. Regardless of how nice it is.lol. :)

Yes, I'm sure Bumsy would have an excellent buttcrack. ;)

Ah,you remembered my nickname. Thx Kristen. Niki says that even though I'm now 65yrs old,I still have a great butt. :)

Of course! I left off the Ottoman this time, because it seemed unnecessary. :)
