I picked up the long ones in the bay last night and left them coiled next
to the outlet (the ones on reels) and on the work tables for the others.
Feel free to plug them and use them when you need them, just unplug them
and coil them up when you are done.  This applies to the wood working /
metal shop as well.

    When the fire inspectors visit our photo studio we get the same
    thing... They say that extension cords plugged in suggest
    permanence, which in our case is incorrect, as we reconfigure the
