    Maybe I've watched final destination too many times (once), but when I'm looking at a load, I almost always see some possible calamity. The two chains are the resulting insurance for when ninjas slash the straps, or I sideswipe a row of sharpened road signs.

    Pictures don't do justice but when the loader is confident and skilled the cubed up results are commendable. Maybe the best load job I've experienced. Very skilled. Pictures don't do justice. But, I'm sure. This is the best I've seen. I made sure to let him know. Credit was due!!! Wish more had skill and passion. While I waited he built them risers and banded.... salute to this fella...

    I buy big bags of individually wrapped meat sticks at Costco and always give a few to loaders that do an awesome job. Anyways here’s a load of pipe Houston to Salt Lake. I hate doing pipe, always a 5-6 hour loading process.

    I noticed a few straps over your lights - are they recessed or flush to where the straps don't touch them? I have to be careful if I'm even running a chain past mine and have to go over the rub rail with a strap or they'll either break or pop through the grommets.

    On my Mac it came with lights that stick out from the rubber grommet about a half inch. I struggled a lot threading a strap hook through if the light was in the way. I switched them out for a light I believe by Grote that has a much lower profile. I had a video awhile ago so I just screenshotted to show you.
