Not looking forward to this. House 1 Cain 0 Do you have a fish tape? It's stiff enough to push, but flexible enough to go around corners when it needs to, and has a loop on the end to connect the wire when you pull it back. Like a narrower tape measure, with a loop in place of the L-hook. Work it down, so gravity helps. Even with one of those, if the house was built to code, there would be blocks at the floors to prevent the cavity behind the sheet-rock acting like a chimney, so you'd have to find an existing gap. Your best bet may be to disconnect an existing wire to the second floor at the breaker box, and use it to pull the new one, plus a "return cord". Then use that "return cord" to re-position the wire you used.

I tried unsuccessfully to feed it up a chase for a different wire that I know goes all the way up, but it'll never happen. Holes are too small. Just gotta glance around the basement for an alternate route. I'm not sure code existed in 1920!

Gravity is your friend. Feel the Force, Luke, and go down instead. The basement's also likely to be an easier place to find the end of the tape when you get far enough, and have the most flexibility for the sideways part.

I'm blindly aiming for a 1" hole from two floors up.

QUOTE(mirocu @ Mar 18 2017, 11:26 AM)  Well, Cavator works fine now. Except I still have issues with the killswitch. It's a button you press to kill the engine but it doesn't always work so I have to resort to turning off the fuel and kill it that way. Mechanic has been notified Current project: clearing a small area behind the shed we put lights in and all that. We will use that area for firewood storage for ourselves as we don't need much. Stumps and rocks were removed but I still need to clean it up a bit and fill up with some dirt. Roof will be built as some point and luckily we do have some spare currogated metal sheets, whatever they are called  Don't forget your settlement recruitment beacon!
