You could run armored cable the whole way...

Yep, easiest solution right there...

Yeah, I've fixed an old craftsman like that, which was almost as bad, works great now and puts out a lot of air. Just pull the pump housing apart, pull the crank and piston, wire brush everything except the bearing surface, maybe use one of those dingle-ball hones on the cylinders. Get a gasket...

Kinda unrelated, but how come it seems like a lot of tools and equipment made in the last ten or so years don't have dates of manufacture on them like older stuff?

Yes, but, assuming there's a neutral present in the box, it would only work on the first switch in the loop. Unless you ran another hot and neutral to the second box, then you could do it on either one.

See, I line them up vertically because dust can just fall through. When they are horizonal, due to gravity, it is more likely for debris to collect in the slots. That **** enough for you?

Used to be that fuel was brushless and the other was not. But now, they have a non-fuel brushless line as well... And now, they have m18 fuel tools with smartphone connectivity and an app to control various functions of the tool. I think it's called onekey. Kinda pointless in my opinion though...

A bunch of people will probably throw a fit over that, but I agree entirely.

Yeah, but if it works... It's not likely to hurt anyone or anything. Not saying I'd do it, but it's already there...

How did you do that so neatly?

This haha... And if a cell phone isn't good enough, you can buy a (wireless if you want) intercom to mount on the wall for very little money.

Those are extremely useful for certain tasks... I just made some a couple weeks ago.

At least if the power goes out, you can power the entire neighborhood...

Yeah but you'd be listening to it clicking the whole time. Something solid state would be much less irritating...
