Found a way to pull cable through a tight attic space without tearing up drywall
Had a job in a 1950s house in Tacoma where the attic access was tiny and the run was blocked by a cross brace. Instead of cutting a new hole, I taped a small magnet to the end of my fish tape and used a strong magnet on the outside of the wall to guide it around the brace. It took about 20 minutes of careful moving, but the fish tape popped out right at the outlet box. Anyone have a different trick for these old cramped attics?
