    You sir just saved me a ton of time. I was trying to fish a very small doorbell wire at a 90 degree angle through brick mortar and your trick still worked. THANK YOU FOR SHARING YOUR WISDOM WITH US. 😊

    Loved it. Excellent information. The part where you magically disappeared from the bottom of the frame and then reappeared was amazing. I am still in awe of that technique. Thanks for sharing. Your wife and chihuahuas are missing out.

    If that's how much comes from making a 'buddy tab' I just as soon walk the extra mile myself to get to my own buddy tab... LMAO

    Omfg that is AMAZING! I cannot wait to show this to the guys at work. I did recently drop off my fish near the end and I just pulled it all the way back and repulled it. Thankfully it was a short run, but many bends.

    We always tried to keep total bends below 270 degrees. Have to watch never install say a 45 degree kick right before a condulet. Had a sparky that always installed all on codulets the wrong way. Told him that when pulling from a high ceiling want the opening facing the ground so guy pulling heavy cable can stay on stable ground rather then a genie lift or sizzles lift.
