Those of you who have speakers or tow point lights on your tower, how did you run the wiring? I'm not having any luck fishing string or anything else through it. There's a hole in the bottom of each leg of the tower. I'm plugging one side and using a shop vac on the other. I'm then guiding some string into the hole on top that I made for the tow point light. The string starts to go, but never makes it to the end. Then when I try to pull it out, I can't (apparently it's knotting itself up inside) and I have to cut the string. Any suggestions?
 
I used a fish tape and metal clothes hangers...
 
I finally got it. I ended up taping a piece of string to a piece of solid copper wire and shoving the wire through the bottom of the leg towards the tow point. I eventually saw the wire and string through the hole I drilled near the tow point and used a small pick to fish out the string.
