    Agreed. My husband can do up to 5 loads a day (local) and after all that, the wrists are pretty worn out. :biggrin_25525:

    I use both hands to turn the winch and use my legs to guide the strap on. That is definitely a tool i'd like to pick up....but #### my forearms are getting jacked up...from the winching, not the loneliness.

    That easy belt roller is a pretty nifty invention. 1 point for the Canuckians.

    Storing straps on the winches is a bad practice and should be illegal.

    Those trucker videos kill me. How to roll up tarps, how to secure load, everybody with a camera wants to be a Youtube star.
