Mark Davis, Of St. Louis, Ill., works with Visu-Sewer Missouri to perform a rough cut on the newly lined sewer pipe on East Street between 7th Street and 8th Street. Davis uses a camera and special cutting tool to open the pipes back up for wastewater flow. The process comes after resin, which let off a smell similar to acetone when being installed, is poured into the sewer pipe and steamed to harden. Kyle Troutman/ktroutman@cassville-democrat.com
