Do you have other equipment that uses the old range plug?
I am not trying to nitpick I just don't understand your reason unless it was for cost factor. I just did almost the same thing for my plasma cutter, I installed a surface mount receptacle (50A) and made up a 10/3 extension. The surface mount receptacle was about 7-8 dollars, but the box mount one was 34+dollars.
As stated in the video it's not my garage. There was equipment plugged in there before i got there and once i leave that equipment will more than likely go back into place.
