    Removing a Hepvo trap to clear blockage

    Thank you, so I need to pull/push the pipe, perhaps below the trap? Is the thread on top of the trap something I should worry about? I think I've managed to suck all the water out of the pipe with a small pump I had handy. Fingers crossed...

    Attaching handles to drawers from reverse side of drawer

    I'm an inexperienced DIYer trying to attach metal handles (which I did not choose myself) to IKEA kitchen drawers.
