And, an indispensible tool for home wiring is one of those 54 inch flexible drill bits. Home depot has them for about $30. Just cut your hole in the wall with a Rotozip, and stick the drill bit in the wall and bend it down to the floor and drill your hole into the basement. I just bought one and I don't know how I got along without it. It's even got a hole on the end to attach cable to, so you can pull it through the wall.

I've had good luck with GoldCom in South St. Paul. They handle all sorts of networking connectors, cable, etc. -Tim -- Tim Wilson | Visit Sibley online: | Check out: Henry Sibley HS | http://www.isd197.org | http://www.zope.com W.
