I needed to run several CAT-5 and RG6 cables to my shop, about 180' by cable length from the house. I ran a 1.25" conduit between the buildings, then ran regular cables through it. One reason I went

Funny you should say that! In about 1980 the Computer science department at UT Austin was renovating its building and they brought in a consultant to decide what type of network cable should be run.

Try a heat gun, or the solvent that is used to remove bathtub decals. The standard "test in a non-conspicuous place" warning applies. Most of that kind of protective film is held on by static charge,

Have you tried the higher end electrical tapes from 3M? I seem to remember that the cheaper the tape, the stickier it gets. I use, I believe 3M #66 tape. Most of the tape I use is outside, on RF con

One other thing I should have included in my last post is that if you are using electrical tape to wrap a wiring harness, it is not the tape to use. There is special harness tape, which is just the p

How about drilling holes in the angle at the back and using bolts to lock the ramps in place. That way you can move the ramps in and out as needed. To keep track of the bolts, weld a small chain to
