    Drain pipe broke in wall
    The drain pipe under my sink broke and the threads from this pipe are stuck in the wall pipe. How do I get these threads out of the pipe. Have been unable to grab and turn with any tools.

    You could try cutting across the threads with a hacksaw blade and then try peeling the broken off pieces with a chisel and hammer.

    If that doesn't work, you may have to cut the fitting out and use shielded couplings to install a new fitting.
