Hi,
I'm getting Coax cable from an aerial in the loft to under the floor on the second floor of my house. I've picked a stud partition that has no sockets or cables in it and have gained access form above it (in the loft) and below it (using cable access cutter in the floor boards).
However the problem I face is that it seems as through the metal stud partition does not meet the floor as when I look under the floor board there is no entry to the above wall and looking in the stud wall it seems to finish about 2 inches from the floor (just above the skirting).
Therefore I have about 2 inches of blockage between getting the cables accessed
My only thoughts at the moment is try using a flexible drill shaft to drill up into the wall and hopefully through to the stud wall (can this be done) or just use ducting to come out from the wall and into the floor (I hate this idea).
Cheers for any advice,
Gary
