Its not funny, my daughter went on a soldering course and did exactly
that the first time she had to use a soldering iron, she was about eight
at the time.

She still went on to do some brick laying and plumb in a sink while there.

I taught our daughter to solder (safely) when she was about 6 (much to
her Mums dismay / disbelief when daughter told her when she came in)
and she has carried on and made projects since then. We still use
daily the 'Kitchen Timer' she made years ago. ;-)

She recently treated herself to a pretty professional pyrography kit
so I wonder if her junior soldering took her that way?

She still went on to do some brick laying and plumb in a sink while there.


That was handy. ;-)

Mine (now 25) asked me recently if I could show her how to clear all
the pipework from the bath and hand basin. Someone needs to know how
to do it when I'm gone and it's not my hair blocking it up. ;-(

It should be funny because whilst she seems able to shovel a flattened
animal off the public highway, she gags at the content of a well used
drain. ;-)

Caustic soda?

Or did you teach her how to use a proper plunger to pull all the cr@p
back up into the sink?

She knows what she has put down there!

I don't know that I've ever had much success with *any* chemical
solution.

Nope, not that either, it will probably be a strip down of all the
plumbing from the trap back as far as necessary (all removable
plastic) and to clean it out properly. ;-)

Mate of mine, a plumber, used to tip a winchester of conc nitric down
any drain that was having a problem and swore that it always worked fine.

Not that easy to get for the average consumer and very dangerous
to use like that too.

And that was in the days before plastic plumbing.

The problem is getting any chemical actually in contact with the blockage.

Quite, so nothing like having the pipes out and in the sink and washed
out properly. ;-)

The longest pipe run goes under the corner bath and terminates in an
access point that has a removable lid for cleaning / rodding etc. I
fitted that directly under the corner seat of the bath so that if I
had to at any time I could cut a hole in the seat and fit an
watertight access hatch etc.
