Very nice,,,,
when ever we had to bury conduit to run wire , we ran a string of strong string or light rope in it before we buried it and when it can time to run the wire , we attached it to the wire and a second piece of string and pulled thru. The reason for the second piece of string is, in case you want to run another line. Hahaha once we forgot and used those snake things they run in water pipes to clean them, some of those are quite long,,hahaha,,it worked,,run back to wire starting point, tape wire to it pull thru. lololol
I had tied a mouse ( plastic bag in a balloon shape) and used a shop vac to suck my string through the conduit.. I was having trouble pulling the wire back through but I realized I was pulling the wronge way ( against the bell ends) .
I moved my wire to the other end of the conduit and pulled it that way with no problem.
