1980's Mighty-Rooter sewer snake with Emerson motor

I've used a drill to turn the snake in the drain.

You have snow down there?!? We just got dumped on with about 10" and high winds to go with it but I live up here in Wisconsin and thats normal. You must have a septic tank like I do. I have trouble with tree roots in mine too.

Very rarely do we ever have snow. This was the only time it snowed this winter, back in, I think, December. There is the forecast for snow and sleet tonight though.

I suppose those rotorooters can really tear things up, when ya got tree roots. Do you have other bits for it, I think there are a few types, like for plastic pipe, iron pipe, root cutters, augers, and such liek that. I've seen some also have autofeed. A waterproof bullet cam is also handy to see wassup in the sewer.

It actually did not have a bit on it when I got it but there is a hole in the end of the snake to mount one. Just the snake by itself has worked on all the sewer clogs I've had.

Reminds me of the line from the movie, "Christmas Vacation"--

"--SHITTER'S FULL!!"  :-)

[towrecker]

My dad has a snake like that as well, it's been pretty handy when we've had a clogged main line.

@dburrigh heh ive got oen of these as well, i bought it when i managed an RV park. thing works great. NOT fun to clean though lol

[force311999]

@yamahonkawazuki we got a new one at work we clean and oil the snake after each use

just tack the drum to the car wash or power wash it out and oil it

[yamahonkawazuki]

@force311999 LOL thats what i usually did. or fired up a pressure washer and did that, then oiled as well. thing works great. although ive seen them destroy plastic sewage line. ( pvc type.) if it couldnt get through an obstruction.

[force311999]

@yamahonkawazuki thats why they used to not allow pvc pipes under concrete floors as it used to require destroying the house to repair know they have trench-less repairs

[TheTarrMan]

those things are handy.
