    What a thread! What a potential for a support group! My air compressor is my best friend, LOL

    Also, we had a large hair clog in our shower - nothing could snake it out and compressed air compacted it, and my wife threatened to hire a $100 / hr plumber to fix it.... chemicals didn't work either.

    So I got the shop vac, shoved it down there and within a few seconds I could smell raw sewage!

    The clog was out!

    There are no windows in our bathroom! *cough*

    Being a guy ROCKS, LOL

    I am motivated to get cleaning around here. I used to use the old vacuum. I think it will be better to blow everything to the front door and reintroduce the dirt to the environment just like the yard guys.
