Shipper supplies the straps, and they do all the strapping. The straps stay on to unload and unless damaged reused on loads coming back to the mother plant in WV. They go through a lot of straps!!.

Little curious about the markings on those @OLDSKOOLERnWV! Was wondering if there are weights written on each piece or a bulk weight totaled before they load you? Reason I asked is the longer pieces on drive side don’t seem to be visible from the pics. Like I mentioned just curious!7-UP, PoleCrusher, shogun and 16 others Thank this.

Good morning, yes they all have numbers written in them, plus each individual piece has it’s own serial number stenciled into the end of it. Numbers on the side are normally the length, and diameter. Numbers directly on the ends are serial numbers for identification. Now that the Dept of Defense is getting stuff from the mother plant, things have changed..... NOBODY enters the plant without checking in and showing their drivers license, and filling out a check in form, they question if you are associated with a foreign country too. Things are interesting now lol, lot of trucks getting rejected simply because the driver has no work boots or has no pants just shorts lol. Plus some drivers refuse to wear a brain bucket because of the head wrap thing they wear lol. No brain bucket no enter..... plus shorts are not allowed, and you have to wear 1/4 sleeve shirts at minimum.7-UP, Nostalgic, PoleCrusher and 23 others Thank this.

2 guys decide to go moose hunting for the first time.
They stop at an outfitters shop to get all the gear they would need. The clerk decides to have a little fun.
“Best way to hunt a moose is in one of these female moose costumes. You both get in it, do the moose mating call, and when a male moose shows up, unzip the suit and shoot him. Easy as that.”
The two guys buy the costume and head to the woods. They get into the costume and the guy in the front starts blowing the mating call.
Suddenly, a large bull moose comes walking up to them.
Guy in back says, “ OK, unzip this thing and let’s shoot em.”
Guy in front says “ The zipper is stuck... can’t get it opened.”
Guy in back asks, “So, what the heck are we going to do?”
Guy in front says,”Ummm, I’m gonna lean over and start eating some grass...but if I were you, I’d brace myself.”7-UP, exhausted379, ShooterK2 and 22 others Thank this.
