I strongly suggest you use all metal conduit and boxes if it is going  
to be outside of the wall. The metal conduit is dirt cheap and  
provides a superior ground. The only drawback is that you need a tool  
to correctly bend the ends for attachment to the boxes, but I can  
lend you mine. The rest is just a hacksaw, a reamer, a screwdriver,  
wire cutters, and a pair of needlenose pliers. I also have a basic  
wiring guide book if you want to borrow it. Be careful whatever you do.
