You forgot to drain out the unused electric first.

I caught my friend chewing electrical cords, So his parents had to ground him for 1 month. He's doing better currently, and now he's conducting himself properly.

Seems to work pretty well. It's still going to trigger some framers though.

That looks neat and easy to pull back out, but I think hand coiling is the best way for the cord’s sake. It doesn’t get twisted and no tight bends. You can also clean the cord with a rag as you coil it.

That's how I was taught at 18 yrs old by my uncle that was in the carpenter union for 45 years. He did alot of custom cabinets in hospitals and schools. He was very good at what he did.

It took a few watches for my brain to understand the movements but now I have it down flawlessly, thank you! 🙂

And that my friend is how you wrap up a parachute cord in the army

Over/under loops are better for the cable but requires some practice.

I was a leg my entire career in the Army, so I never learned this until recently. I have a coworker who was airborne and this is how they do their chutes. He showed this to me recently, I still wrap it arm length at a time lol

Exactly what I was looking for! Thanks for helping me out here in Asheville NC. 🎉

I prefer the chain method because you can throw your cord across whatever plywood scraps you have in the back of your pickup truck that usually takes flight a few streets from your job site and you can cover it with that extension cord and not have that problem ever again. It keeps the things you want to stay in your pickup truck in the back of your pickup truck when you're going down the highway.

I give you no grief...I just say...THANK YOU SO MUCH!

I saw this clip probably like 6-7 months ago, and today i needed to wrap up a 50 footer ext cord, so i remembered the thumbnail of this video now i have a perfectly neat extension cord in the garage 😁

Damn! You have no idea how much I love you right now

[jaexotics]

It’s a nice way for a shop cord but it your framing out on a muddy site you gunna be a big ol’ muddy mess after that 😂 my wife probably won’t let me in the house

What can we do with stiff cords with memory, can’t seem to get them to lay flat and straight even in the sun?? Great video, learned something new and valuable at 69! Thanks!😃

Absolutely love my new surge protector power strip! 😍 The 8 widely spaced outlets and 4 USB charging ports are a game-changer, keeping all my devices powered up without any hassle. The 5 ft braided extension cord is a nice touch, offering flexibility and durability. Plus, the flat plug and wall mount feature make it super convenient for my home office setup. 🏡 Highly recommend this desk USB charging station! Check it out here:

👍🤩💝 thanks but the comment section experts are gonna get you for doing it that way. 😂

[jasonmcmaster]

You can wrap it around your wrists the exact same way and don’t look goofy while doing so. The best part about this method is when you wrap an extension cord in front of a group and they try to figure out what the heck you’re doing. Surprisingly entertaining party trick

[patrickhouchins]

I would do that but I don't want to look stupid, I also get paid by the hour, takes a while to untangle cords lol
