Pulling HDMI Cable Through Wall Conduit

Jotting down a few resources for future remembrance:

Our rental had two 1-inch conduits running from behind the TV mount to a nearby alcove. The conduit pull line extended about six inches out of each end of the conduit. Knotted each end of the conduit pull line to another section of pull line. An aside: after tightening one end, I accidentally yanked the other end into the conduit 😝 Luckily, was able to suction the conduit pull line back to the opening using the hose of our vacuum cleaner. 😅 

HDMI Cable:

Cable Matters Unidirectional CL2 Rated (in-Wall Installation) Active 8K @60Hz Fiber Optic HDMI 2.1 Cable 24.6 ft / 7.5m - Support 4K@120Hz HDR

The eventual goal: get an audio/visual system in place (receiver, speakers, etc.). This first step allows for removal of the Nintendo Switch to the alcove, where all the A/V gear will eventually reside.
