Found a way to clean really tight bends without a whip

Had a job in an old house near downtown Austin last week. The flue had a 45 degree bend I couldn't get my standard brush through. Tied a sock filled with chain links to my rod and pushed it through slow. Worked way better than I expected and didn't scratch the liner. Anyone else use a DIY trick like that for tricky spots?

Wait, did you tie the knot yourself or use a zip tie like I did once?

Tie the knot?" More like I used a broken shoelace and some sheer luck.
