    Wasn’t sure about all straps a la @booley so I took an idea from @Diesel Dave and used some chains.
    Been a while since I slung 3/8’s at all; and I never had to go up and over before with them before either lol

    I haven't thrown a tarp in over a month. The streak may end next week, pending weather. 20240424_083156.jpg 20240424_083914.jpg

    Ya it's a little tough throwing 3/8's around. I had to go dig up my old 5/16's when l was hauling concrete pipe. All the cool concrete hauling veteran guys had that 1/4" herc-alloy chain for throwing over 8' pipe etc.
