Then I grabbed my telescopic magnet to pull out the wire, but didn't notice the magnet had caught a small washer. Yes, you guessed it. The washer ended up inside the pipe as well. Both things seem to be way down there now and I can't take them out.

I guess I'll have to take the slip on apart and try from there.
