Fun #HamRadio project to end the afternoon! I learned how to do #PowerPole work.
Backstory: my radios both use these power supply attachments that are like 2/3 of a circle. It's a huge pain because you can attach them (pictured later) and they can slide right off with an accidental tug. So tonight, I set out to change both radios' power supply cables to have a "powerpole" or kind of power lego on the end of them.
I took pics for some phases. I'll link instructions below.

Bulkhead mount PP prototype, should look nice eventually.. Still rough around the edges, no matter how many chamfers I add.
I designed this inspired by another similar SB50 mount, since every PP mount I found was just perpendicular to the panel and very simplistic.
