Have just installed a new antenna and have reminded myself that securing the
coax downlead using cable clips (into brick) using a hammer takes skill,
patience and more clips than clip locations.
Is there a purpose designed tool for this job? which gets the hardened pin
into the wall without shattering pin, mortar or brick? My neighbour's
installation looks so neat with clips every few inches....

TIA

The trick is to use lots of little taps, not a few heavy clumps.
