Anyone know where I might be able to acquire an extension cable for a Hakko FX888D soldering iron?  I'd like to extend the iron another 3 feet or so from the base station.

Here's the connector:

Regular DIN...same thing used on old school PC keyboard (not the mini stuff used with PS/2 connectors).

Just match the number of pins...the spacing is standard, and you can probably find then at Radio Shack.

The spacing is somewhat standard, for example din 5 has a 180 degree and 270 degree variant.  That being said it looks like a din 6 (same as the commodore 64 iec cables)
