B. gets my vote, Jim. You can get a "Fish Tape" from some of the big Home Depot type places, or an electrical supply house. Ideal makes a decent one which isn't very expensive. If you get the type wi

Don't ya just love cheap, easy, elegant solutions that actually work? The above is one of 'em. I'd like to add - Put a bit of antioxidant stuff on each wire before you crimp it. It doesn't take much.

Hi Dick, I respectfully disagree with the above statement. I use the cowtail method. The cowtails are not fall-arrest lanyards, but rather short regular rope. Mine are tied to the front D-Ring and ar

Hi Pete, You should get a bunch of different opinions on this. I like a short hangman's knot. 3 to 5 turns instead of 13 (hi). With a bit of practice it's another knot that you can tie without thinki

Personally, I don't think anyone could argue against Michael on this. OnTheOtherHand : These instruments are pretty expensive. If you don't have the $$ right now you can get by with a Grid Dip Meter.
