Title of Question: Removing pipe threads from inside another pipe
Name: Betty City: Pacific
Question: While trying to remove the shower flange (the part that you screw a shower head on to) from the pipe in the wall, the flange broke off, leaving the threads on the end of the flange inside the pipe in the wall. We've been told to use an easy out tool, but the pipe only goes straight into the wall about 2" and then curves. Is there any other way to get the threading end out?
