That sounds like a very smart solution! But, its not the getting it up part
I have a problem with, its the horizontal part through the 1st floor
joists,
I don't want to notch them, and there are that many holes in this
particular
section as it has all the wiring for the 1st floor going that way already!

I may look at going up to the attic and dropping down as a last resort.

Time to pull up some more floorboards :)

Cheers, Des.
