    Shortening power cords

    In a recent post somebody mentioned that he shortened the power cords on hand held corded power tools so he wouldn't have to coil the cords around the tools. I took his advice and does it ever clean up the shelves where I store my corded equipment. I cut the cords about 6 inches from the tool and added good quality male plugs on three routers,a biscuit joiner and a circular saw. I kept two of the longer cords and added female ends. I keep these two extentions plugged in and coiled near my work bench. Sure seems neater and lower maintenance.
