Will do, thanks Mark, I’ll send that over today.

Hey Alex! Great job - good pics on process too! thanks

@MindOfMcClure - Alex, what’s the length of the coiled cord for the Makita? I didn’t see a clear delineation in the thread - is it 6’ end to end? Can you order the coiled cord with a longer straight end to avoid the splice?

The item you want to order is (220 F 1802PM03) from their website . If memory serves me its 6’ at farthest flex.
