Making my own power cord.

I need an unusual power cord configuration that I can’t find extant anywhere.  It looks like I’m going to have to make my own, even though I’ve never done it before.
 I need to have a two pronged IEC-C17 connector at one end and a standard wall plug at the other end
Does anyone know where  I can obtain the materials for such a connection?
Also, I’m going to need instructions on how to do it.

You do realize that any IEC with a ground will fit, right? It's perfectly safe. 

What is not safe is when the equipment requires a ground, and you disable it.

According to Audioquest there is an American C-17 and a European C-17 with a different configuration. Very bizarre!
Anyway, Cyrus is sending me their stock power cable with an American outlet plug.  That doesn’t solve the problem of finding an upgrade cable, however.
 We’ll have to see if the stock Cyrus cable makes any difference from what I was using (a standard three hole with only two holes utilized.)
