Title: Steel shot in the garbage disposal
Post by: jplmyers on October 17, 2012, 10:52:27 PM: Well, I missed a pellet and it's sounding ugly in the garbage disposal. Has this happened to you, and was there an easy fix, or do I get to spend tomorrow evening under the sink?

5 mins and done. Had to turn it on momentarily a few times to kick it up. Took a lot longer the last time, but that was before I got the sink redone.
