Could you attach some sort of round wire brush - like a huge gun 
cleaning brush? Something like a boiler tube cleaner?

It bores a pretty small hole in the gunk clogging the pipe, so it doesn't take long to clog again.  I don't think there are any small, handhelp drain snakes with really big tips on them, capable of cleaning the entire inside diameter of the pipe.  I have seen these at the hardware stores made for bigger, heavier machines.  Not something I want to hold head high while working on the drain.
