Who knew power cords were such a hot-bed of contention?

And the other absolute fact about an extension cord, compressor hose or rope is that when you're dragging one around the work site it will catch on the slightest obstacle at every opportunity. But if you were falling over a cliff, hanging onto one and relying on it to catch on something and save your life...yep you guessed it......... smooth as silk.

You guys are all wrong. It has been my lifetime experience that the female of the species is always right, end of story and no argument is possible.

Best method of winding leads of any kind that I have seen is to wind them up on garden hose reels. You can daisy chain them together and they don't kink.
The other day I described to my daughter how to find something in the garage by saying "It's right near my big saw". A few minutes later she came back to ask: "Do you mean the black one, the green one, or the blue one?".
