My 2 year old stuck a glass rock from the outdoor fireplace in the key gas valve. It has the extension on it so the rock is about a foot back into the end of the valve. How do I safely get it removed?
Should have married her.As a kid I saw a quarter down in a storm drain with the heavy steel grate above it. My Buddy came along and said what are you looking at and I said a quarter. We were then both looking down trying to figure it out and the neighbor girl named Norma rides up on her bike and said what ya looking at and I told her a quarter. She walks over and picks up a 4 foot stick under a tree sticks her wad of bazooka bubble gum she was chewing on the end faster than a blink she stuck that quarter pulled it up put her gum back in her mouth and my quarter in her pocket handed me the stick and rode off. I will never forget that one.
That’s why they say hindsight is 20/20. LOL.Should have married her.
Depending on a lot of variables, the first thing I would try is a shop vac. I have removed things from drains etc.. using one. Find a piece of tubing that will fit into the extension tube and use a rag or tape to seal the opening between the tubing and the opening of the vacuum hose, then reach in and see if you can pick up the rock. If it works it is quick and simple, if not you will have to go to more extreme measures.

I thought everyone knows what you do the other 2 months in Erie. You patch pot holes.Buds hobby it seems is shoveling snow, what's he to do the 2 months of the year there's no snow on the ground in Erie?
Only if there is a risk in DIYing it.In such situations, I prefer to contact specialists. This is much more reliable and often cheaper than trying to solve the problem yourself.
