we go back to this culvert where the water was over the bridge and clear out a ton of brush. we also attempt to unclog that overflow culvert that was completely blocked.

I wonder if I’m the only one who found herself moving shoulders with each push. Omg…really enjoying this! I would have tried with the pole alone to see if it’d loosen the debris a bit. The piece at the front may be compacting the plug up even more. Just my helpful suggestion…😅 It’s a balmy 8 degrees celsius here today…just bits of snow left in the fence corners. Can’t wait for next instalment ❣️ 👋🏻👋🏻👋🏻

When you watch the blocked drain high pressure water jetting people, they often put through a very small initial nozzle, to break through, and allow water through, which helps to wash away the mud and smaller debris, so the hole gets bigger. Then they put through the next size one, and eventually the big ones. Perhaps using the wonderful pole extensions, with the front end blocked, or even with a pointed screw on end, and pushing it along and through the bottom, where the water might flow, you might be able to do similar ? I had the feeling that possibly you were tamping it into an ever more solid barrier.. hope not

the best solution would be one of those bar segmented bar things, and then one bar with the plate on the end, and then another with a good hook on it. push the bar through, then on the far side put the one with the plate, and on the other side the one with the hook, and then use a come-along tied to a tree to pull it through. come-alongs are a huge force-multiplier and what my dad used to use to bring the game he hunted to his truck, like huge elk and moose.

Hi guys. 11.15 am Sunday morning in South Australia. Every time you both pushed that rod I was there pushing with my phone. Sorry I can't help more but I fell over yesterday morning and landed on my left knee so sore ++. Lucky though at 65 I didn't break anything, this time. Had 3 breaks in last 4yrs. Keep up the good work and good to see dad out there with you. Seems he is as smart at improvisation as my dad was. ❤

I saw a guy use a long drill to make holes in a beaver dam once - if you could combine the length of that multi pole gadget with a wide drill head and a bit of spinning power you might get through some of these dirt/mud/leaves/stick clogs pretty easily. Once you have made a hole or 2 with the drill it would be much easier to thread that pole gadget and just push the rest of the material through the pipe.

That’s a good idea, dad has been thinking about putting screws through the wood piece so it would hopefully tear the debris. Then hook up his grinder on the handle so it would spin the pole.

I have seen people use an old tire that had a cable tried around the tire and fished one end of the cable through and pulled the tire through the culvert to pull everything out. However, you will have to use a come along hooked to a tree or a wrench to pull the tire tire through, just a thought. May not be easy.

Watching you guys I had a thought... which might be dangerous, but... When you use that long pole and were pushing against the block, you are pushing everything INTO whatever blocked it. If you started from the other side (the exit) you could try to push things OUT of the blockage. Which might just loosen everything enough to be able to then pull it out from the entrance side.

from someone who could never do it but if it is that clogged then maybe run the pipe through without the board on the end a few times to break through the jam then attach the board. easier to poke 6 or 7 small holes before going for it. But you guys are knocking it out the park

Why are you putting the debris right back into the flow? it should be removed so as to not block the downstream flow. you are doing some great work but i feel you are adding to the blockage.
