20070267879, Nov 22, 2007

Filed:

Mar 6, 2006

Appl. No.:

11/367780

Inventors:

Kenneth Hardin - Grand Blanc MI, US

International Classification:

E21B 31/06

US Classification:

294065500

Abstract:

The invention is a fish wire kit having a chain with a hook and weight on one end and riveted or otherwise attached to housing on the other end. A round housing is provided for storing the chain when not in use and to prevent the chain from falling completely inside the wall crevice when in use. A hole is drilled in an upper section of the wall which the chain is fed through and pulled downward via gravitational force. A flexible cable having the wire attached on one end and a magnet on the upper end, is fished through a hole from the bottom of the wall such that it will attach to the chain after the flexible cable and the chain are connected via a magnetic connection. The chain can be pulled back up through the wall, which in turn, pulls the flexible cable and the wire from below and out through the upper hole in the wall.
