If You Bang It Hard Enough

It will come off. My garbage disposal was leaking like my Father's boat (he doesn't read my blog so I can say that lol) instead of calling a plumber I decided to give it a whack, literally actually many, many whacks and it finally came off.
It sure couldn't hurt to try of course this is only temporary I will have to go back to Home Depot tomorrow for the correct fixture but I did it. I had no intention of trying to install another garbage disposal a regular drain will do. Although it saved me the money I would have spent on a plumber I didn't get anything cut out but the weekend is just beginning.


Ladies don't be afraid of home repairs just whack it and see what happens.

You sound like one of my daughters. I would be sure and tear it up beyond repair so that we would end up replacing the whole sink or something!!

Good for you!!! I would totally take after that garbage disposal, too. Whenever we have repairmen in the house, and they try to talk to my husband, he always says "Talk to her. The tools in the basement are hers, not mine!"

I agree! I think women are better at these things than men anyway.

Isn't it amazing what you have to go through to get the old garbage disposal off. Putting a new one on is a breeze. Until I met my husband I always tackled home improvement project. I was successful at whatever I tried. Now I am even trying some sewing machine repair. We sewers are uber talented!
