Does anyone know how to make a homemade snake for a drain?

You can use a zip-tie to get in there. It's usually got grated edges that will cling on to the clog and pull it out. Good luck!
thanks for the suggestion
A wire clothes hanger. Unbend it until it's fairly straight but leave a little hook on the end. Work it down into the drain, give it a couple of twists, pull it out, run some water to see if that took care of the problem. If it didn't then go through the steps again until you have unclogged the drain. If it did work, then you're free to do something you really like.
I take an old wire hanger, straighten it out, but leave a little "hook" on the end and start digging aroun!
There are plastic strips that are made to snake out hair, etc. They are really cheap and they work great. The only problem with using this type or the hanger type is if the clog is too far down.
