Does anybody know of a flexible-shaft or similar device that could be
used to operate an exterior hose bibb? Ours is in an inaccessible
location and we need to find a way to turn it on and off from about 5'
away. We haven't been able to use an extension hose because the bibb
leaks like crazy when you turn off the hose at the far end.

That would be a loooong stem! Nothing ready-made comes to mind of
that length.

Which direction need to go?

Move the faucet?

I guess one could cobble something together out of, say, a 3/8" drive
socket u-joint or wobble socket spliced together with an really long
extension rod.

Seems as though moving it would be easier. If it were really important,
guess could replace the ordinary bibb w/ a solenoid-actuated valve w/
remote, but that surely must be _WAY_ overkill...
