Today’s topic: Extension Cord Safety.
According to OSHA, extension cords should:
• Be rated for the proper load
• Not run through water
• Not be used as permanent wiring
But according to Hammered Handyman field testing, the real rules are:
If the cord reaches… it’s the right cord.
If the breaker trips… that’s just the system asking for more commitment.
If the cord sparks once… electricity is just saying hello.
Remember…
We’re lowering expectations… one project at a time.
Stay safe out there.
Or at least entertaining.

P.S.
If someone says
“You shouldn’t plug that into that…”
Just plug one more thing into it and see what happens.
For science.
