Bucket Of Water Clears Toilet
I read with interest about the air-powered toilet plunger in the last issue of FARM SHOW. Although it looks like it might work well, it has one of the main problems all plungers have: the clean-up after using.
  I’ve used a different method for 60 years that costs nothing, requires no clean-up, and has never failed to work. All you need is a bucket of water.
  Wait until water in the plugged-up toilet drains down as far as it will go. Hold your bucket of water at about chest height and tilt slowly to start a small stream of water falling into the toilet, aiming at the drain at the bottom. Then dump in all the water at once in a heavy stream aimed at that drain.The heavy stream of water will push the clog right through and you’re done. (James Nelson, Woodville, Wis.)
