Two questions I'd love advice on:Q1: What am I doing wrong that my plumbing snake kinks all the time?Q2: How can I repair the one I just broke in half today?Here's a picture of some of the 75' of snake laid out on the concrete after cleaning out the drain pipes today: PICTURE: 's the kind of kink that I keep getting in the hose when I try to rewind it back into the container: PICTURE: 's where I broke the snake today trying to unkink the kink: PICTURE: there any way to repair this 75' snake or is it a goner? PICTURE: summary, I'm sure my technique is bad because I keep getting kinks in the snake ... and ... when I unkink them ... I broke the snake.Q1: What am I doing wrong?Q2: How can I repair it?
