I feel stupid asking this, but I use a NEMA 6-50 plug to run my plasma cutter and welder. Now I'm looking to get a new bigger 60+ 220V air compressor. Specifically the Husky 7 peak model # VT6314. Can this be wired to work with my NEMA 6-50 plug? If so does anyone know where I can get one, as neither home depot nor sears carry this style plug.
Here is the plug end I'm talking about.

Both home depot and lowes in my area has that plug. It is a pretty common plug.
