    Perhaps MJ's "Huh" came from the 'gentlemen' referral. ((j/k)

    Talking about strap winders. I have one from Kindeyne. Works great. Picked mine up at a Utility Dealer, less than 15 bucks

    Probaby so and I was hoping the moderators would close it down before it got rediculous. My Opligies to the interupution.

    But now I'm glad we're back on topic as I look forward to learning some new tricks and tips to easier flatbedding.

    Anyone know of a good way to fold or roll a coil tarp?

    LOL. My wifes folds my sheets, maybe I can get her to fold the coil tarp.

    The coil tarp is shaped like a triangle bag so I do usually wad it up.

    I use an old sock without holes to put my glasses in since my case tore up. Keeps them from getting scratched.
