I stupidly flushed sewing thread and video tape down the toilet

I stupidly flushed sewing thread and video tape down the toilet and now it's blocked. I removed the toilet from the soil pipe but the blockage is somewhere down the soil pipe where my hand can't reach it.

I've poured domestic drain unblocker, bleach, caustic soda, vinegar, and boiling water down it but it's still blocked.

What should I try next?

>sewing thread
stainless steel

>video tape
plastic, i.e. same if not stronger than the pipe

there is nothing that will dissolve them, best you can try is get a snake and maybe pull them out

but can i just say, who the fuck put sewing threads and video tape down the toilet?

I'm pretty sure sewing thread is not made of stainless steel....

Anyway I stupidly put them down there. I tied it to a cardboard toilet roll and flushed it to see what would happen. I wanted to see the thread / tape getting sucked down but instead it just got blocked.

It's been blocked now for 4 months and I'm shitting into plastic bags.

ok they are made of cotton, if you try to dissolve it you will dissolve the pipe before you do, so again, you cant dissolve it

have you even tried bending a cloth hanger and see if you can hook some of the shit out

Yes, this should be a good thread.

>>1153108
Nigger what? Why would you expect any liquid to do anything to video tape? The first thing to try on that is a pipe snake to hook the tape.

Video tape has been obsolete for decades, flush a DVD down there.

Acetone will dissolve the video tape

>>1153253
And the pipe.
>>
>>1153254
So? Pipe definitely won't be blocked then
>>
>>1153255
So instead of a blocked pipe, op will have a flood of shit seeping out from the wall, the floor, and the entire building will be covered in shit smell, and no way to get rid of it unless the whole place is demolished to get to the pipe
>>
>>1153253
How much nail polish remover would be needed for that?

>>1153112
>blocked now for 4 months

And you finally sought advice from a Vietnamese square dancing board.

I tried fixing it myself but it didn't work. I wanted to leave it a while for the drain unblocker and vinegar to work, but it hasn't. Now I'm out of ideas.
>>
>>1153347
what is behind the wall? is this a tall building?
>>
>>1153347

Wow...that looks like East European plumbing...pipes all exposed...

>>1153347
Can you cut the other side of the blocked pipe from going to sewage treatment? Because pumping them back up the pipe should work, though the mess at the end won't be pretty. Putting a whole bunch of acetone down the pipe is ill-advised if you have plastic pipes, even more so if you're not cut off from local sewage treatment.

Why did you flush that shit down the toilet anyway?

>>1153347
Comfy shit corner bro

go buy a fish tape at harbor freight. $9

open up the end a little bit so it will hook the tape, shove 20 or so feet of the wire down your shitter, and slowly twist the fish tape reel while pulling out the fish tape

you should at some point snag and drag out your abortion of an idea to get rid of something besides burning it.

Sweet, ive got some cast iron scraps i need to get rid of. Glad i can just soak them in acetone to get rid of them. Maybe i can recycle the metal later after the acetone evaporates.
