Yvan š(ish) #40c3 on Nostr: So... what do we do with 12 (and a bit) rolls of toilet paper we cannot flush down ...
So... what do we do with 12 (and a bit) rolls of toilet paper we cannot flush down the loo because it clogs drains? Seems like a question for #MakersHour perhaps?
Kat had the bright idea of putting some in a jar of water. The 'A' sample is a standard Andrex product, the 'B' sample is the Bamboo TP. This was done about 3 days ago, the day after I had to jet the drains.
The 'A' sample disintegrated to a sludgy particulate on just one shake, pretty much immediately.
The 'B' sample has actually had more violent shaking, more so than it'd get in being flushed, but contiguous pieces of paper remain.
If there is a standard for how bogroll dissolves then I suspect this product fails to meet it.
TP Science! LOL... this TP is not for bunghole.
We'll stick to known/usual brands now I guess.
