Tool Tips: Long pipe runs, easy patching, recycling water heater boxes
Going fishing
When working in schools and commercial buildings with long wire and pipe runs, I use an old fishing pole and reel, a golf ball and a slingshot. I tape the fishing line to the golf ball, lift out a ceiling tile, open the bail on the fishing reel and shoot the golf ball with the slingshot down the hall. Lift up the tile, tie the line to the wire or pipe and reel in the golf ball.
