Back to Electrical... I found the same style receptacle, same manufacturer with the configuration that matches my new extension cord. Installed in about 20 minutes, changed the welder plug and now I can move the welder around the shop. Stopped and traded the receptacle back to the store for a plug for the generator and I am back to everything fits. PJ, I thought the pigtail thing was the way I was headed.... the search for an end landed me at the place that had the receptacle that would fit in my wall.
So now I'm not pissed at my electrician any more
Did a little welding on the back of the car... kinda nice to move the welder around the car instead of move the car around the welder.
I've been working toward body parts, and finally figured out how we are going to get some of it done. We have a large "maker space" at Wichita State, they have a "Frog Mill"... CNC mill used to cut foam. So the first thing I'm going to try is making the nose. We have a "Step File" Pork Pie produced in CATIA to use to mill the form. I initially wanted to 3D print it with their big 3D Printer, but it actually belongs to National Institute for Aviation Research (NIAR) and they have it back logged with stuff to do for the next 3 months or so.
