Only just seen this, that's great so just a 350 deep trench with sand should do it. smile

The kelvar armoured fibre drop cable versions if I recall are in the 8mm to 10mm diameter region

Corrected typo on thickness i.e. dropped 0.

As an idea, that truly sucks wink

A compressor used to blow is more effective.

But how many people have access to a compressor let alone have one at home?

If i was going to the trouble of digging a 65M trench i would 100% be putting duct in.Just make sure you put a draw rope in as you go along, thats the way the contractors do it.

these comments are my own and in no way represent any company that i may or may not be linked too.

I have a compact tractor with a backhoe so I won't have to do it by hand thankfully.
