I found your channel and videos at the EXACT perfect time. Its almost like it was meant to be. Will be moving into new house very soon that I plan to do some cat6 runs DIY. Please post more of these types of videos!
I made a vid to help inform and educate on network basics. There's lots of tips in the pinned comment many have found useful ua-cam.com/video/fjRKID2ucPY/v-deo.html&t
As an addendum to my previous comment, could you offer any advice or perhaps make a video about running cables through the floor into a basement/crawlspace and finally through a concrete wall? This will end up being how my cables will need to be run.
As I review upcoming work, I don't think I have anything that would specifically fit the bill here. If you are going through joists that are supporting an upper floor, its probable that you may have some romex wire that an electrician installed during the build of the house, if so, I often follow their pathways, drilling a 1 inch hole in the joist with a paddle bit and keeping my cat6 at least 2 inches away from the romex. Space between joists can be tight, so I have a right angle drill for this scenario, all the major players make one. For the concrete wall it will depend on the type, but a hammer drill with an SDS bit is usually what I need to make it happen. Makita makes the best in my opinion but if this is a one-off maybe just rent or borrow a cordless one. If it is just CMU brick you'll be through it in like 5 seconds of drilling, if it is a form wall or slab you'll be at it for a couple minutes depending on thickness.
There are devices like this product, I usually just strategically mount J-Hooks in a circle and wrap around that, but check out if you think this is better: www.panduit.com/en/products/cabinets-thermal-management-racks-enclosures/cable-managers-accessories/cable-manager-accessories/wmfs24.html
Thank you for your videos lately. Would love to collab with you on something where we can talk how structured cable is important to an overall robust network.
I have wired up more miles of ethernet than I care to admit. I love your videos and always learn something!

Hi Derick, is there any solution for the Cat 6 cable slack storage inside the plenum area (slack of 10' & 24+ cables)

what is that electric screwdriver?
Check the vid description for the link, it's a pretty common one from Amazon.
