Installing Conduit Makes Running CAT6 Cable... Easier

  • While my house is being renovated, I installed conduit to run CAT6 cable up to my attic and garage. Eventually I'll install cameras that run power over ethernet (POE) to a central location under my stairs where I'll keep an NVR. Until then I'll just be here covered in sawdust and assorted filth

    I'm crying laughing, this is absolutely amazing. I'm just about to do this to our new house and I hope I manage to keep my good humour like you did 😊

      Thank you! and good luck, just remember that while you're doing the work, tears of frustration eventually give way to tears of madness... not much better but you will at least be laughing

    This is funnier than I expected it. As a guy who just recently started to do small improvements in the house, I can relate :)

    Apparently, DaveMan has never heard of Smurf, AKA ENT Flexible Conduit. Ran about 500' into my house when I remodeled. A touch easier than this. They sell it in sticks and rolls at both HD, Lowes & Menards.
    When you go to put pull string into it use a vacuum cleaner on one end and tie a small piece of plastic bag to the end of the string. Sucks that string through in a flash. Wayyyy easier that compressed air.
    Second on the Unifi BTW.

      Sir, you should be aware that there a great many useful and superior products that I have not heard of. My ignorance is by no means limited to flexible conduit. Also good tip on the vacuum

    Hi Dave. Did you consider using flexible conduit instead of hard PVC conduit, especially for some of the navigation through the walls and tight spaces?

    • @daveman4863
      @daveman4863  6 месяцев назад +1

      Thinking ahead was definitely not high on the list for this one, and unfortunately I had a very short window to get the work done so some methods just had to be good enough. Next time though I'll apply what I've learned!
