    Default Power Cords

    I was thinking of making my own power cords. Has anyone tackled this DIY project? Thoughts please.

    On Power cords I would keep scanning the FM. You know how I am with the DIY stuff. With the price of decent components used is most likely the way to fly.

    Please. Please contact me a ben62670 @ yahoo.com. Make sure to include who you are, and you are from Polk so I don't delete your email. Also I am now physically unable to work on any projects. If you need help let these guys know. There are many people who will help if you let them know where you are.
    Thanks
    Ben

    It is 13AWG and as flexible as some Interconnects. The copper material itself is so soft.
