English Explanation of Mishnah Kelim
The string of a [common] plumb-line is regarded as connected up to a length of twelve [cubits]; That of the carpenters’ plumb-line, up to eighteen [cubits]; And that of the builders’ plumb-line up to fifty cubits. The parts that exceed these lengths, even if it was desired to retain them, are pure. The string of a plumb-line is regarded as connected for most types of plumb-lines as far as is generally necessary to drop the weight. A common plumb-line is only used for twelve cubits, a carpenters' is used for 18 and a builders for fifty (that's a pretty high building). Anything beyond that is pure, even if he wishes to retain the extra length.

English Explanation of Mishnah Kelim
The plumb-line of plasterers or moulders is regarded as connected whatsoever its length. Plasterers and moulders work on walls and therefore can use plumb-lines of any length. Therefore, no matter how long it is, it is considered connected.
