Computers to drain-pipes! I can't resist! After putting a bunch of
bacon-grease down the drain, my sink plugged solid. I escalated up to a
50ft snake running down the drain, and that still didn't fix it. The
snake definately was going down the right path, as the house isn't that
long, but it didn't reach the clog. I cut a section out of the drain
under the house to get closer. It still didn't reach! 50ft had to be
in the ceptic tank I thought! I ended up fitting an air-compressor to
the drain, and about 30 PSI later, BAM! Done.
