I've been putting in the tape wire, and installing the eyelets. I
installed the junction splice on the underside of the house (in space
created by the "foundations") I'll route out a "mouse hole" for the
cord to escape.

But I got out the tester, and ALL splices worked. I guess I expected
it to be more fiddly, more of a problem to get right, and would
require lots of trouble shooting. I'm very, very glad it was so easy.

I had a few wrinkles that I'll have to figure out how to disguise (and
I figured out how to avoid them next time).

The shocking thing is that I used nearly FIFTEEN FEET of tape in a
small cottage. I did have some waste - sloppy plans, and stuff that
was too wrinkled, so I pulled it out and started over. But that only
amounts to a foot or maybe 18 inches. I NEVER would have guessed that
it would take so much. But the house will have 4 ceiling fixtures and
5 outlets (with flexibility to add more).
