Have you ever heard of a shop vacuum?

Usually only available at highly specialized stores such as Walmart.

Hi Jim,

Unfortunately my shopping nature turns me more towards Fry's and I
certainly have very little interest in yet another vacuum cleaner (if
they offer them). Market forces long (decades) ago convinced me that
Hardware skills were in a declining employment segment in proportion
to software.

There may not be a software solution to this current problem of
locating a buried pipe, but I wouldn't have buried it without some
simple binary marker (it's here!). The analog solutions offered are
inventive, and I do appreciate them however. One or several are
probably far more effective than going to Walmart for a shop-vac (that
would only become a permanent altar attesting to my need to use it in
justification for its expense).

Everyone needs a shop vac, especially a wet and dry one.

Unless you really like spending a long time mopping floors.
