100 foot extension cord

[BoatGuy]

If you have a good idea how to store it, I like to hear it. The wrapping around your arm just doesn't work with 12 gauge.

Any extension cord storage or reel ideas?

Tote box like we deep water guys use for 100 fathoms of anchor rode...

That arm thing only creates twist in the line, and way to cumbersome for 100’… try holding an end at waist high, spread the length the size of stretching apart your arms ( should be around 6 feet ) continue for the 100 foot. 6 divided into 100 = 16 turns… the line eventually will be relaxed and easier to work with… also, tape off 50 feet. and use the other 50’ as needed… C22…

actually one loop is nearer to 12 feet , perhaps 8 or 9 loops.. C22…

Nice! I assume you "wind in" the cord. Can they handle 100 feet of 12 gauge (very think)?
Where and how much?

 

[Chevy1]

Yes they sell multiple sizes. I haven’t bought one in a couple years. But I’m sure the big box stores will have them.
It’s called Cordwheel.

100 foot of 12 gauge is fairly thick, research… hand wind the best… C22…

Just a thought here but some of you guys have to get out more. We are way overthinking How to store a 100 ft. extension cord. !! My suggestion is call the Kitner kid down the street, He'll figure it out for you.

Sorry but im boored and have to get out more.
