K.I.S.S. ... why go thorough the trouble to wire up something special? I would buy a 50a extension cord and use an adapter like this on the 30a end. It does what is described above easily, quickly, and accurately. The 50a cord will be heavy enough to carry the power you will use. 
Ditto or buy a dogbone
That would be my solution. You get the heaviest wire cord all the way down the line and buy an inexpensive dogbone (those puck styles do seem to melt as has been mentioned; and the dogbones are easier to remove when necessary).
