    Have fun. They shut down the sauna and the pool is getting maintenance.

    where do you put them? i keep 16 snap binders hanging up under my bungees, and two ratchet binders in the side box with the steel tarps. i can't figure out where to put that many of the ratchet kind.

    Chilling at Oak Creek. Live in Sheboygan in the morning, taking MT here, then off home to MA for the weekend. Was gunning for Friday but Saturday will have to do.

    you got it, bud.

    and also every single one of the prysmian loads out of abbeville, where the wooden cable spools are just rolled onto the deck and then have landscaping timbers nailed in as chocks. okonite too.

    i'm not about to change anything i do, though, and so far i've never heard a peep about enforcing this boneheaded stuff. i'm hoping somebody official will see the idiocy and the rule changes will quietly go away in some future bureacratic haze.
     
    Perpetual and Treefork Thank this.

    I had 8 ratchets under my bungees in the left hand door and 8 snaps behind my chains, used ratchets most of the time. Had to set my ratchets at different lengths to hang next to each other

    I keep 6 ratchet binders in the chain box, hanging on the chains (3 per side, staggered, with handles pointing to center). The other 2 ratchets and 8 snap binders are on the bottom row of the bungee box.

    yeah, i have the new chain lockers without the lower lip to hang stuff up on. anything i hang in there has to fit in on the same rail as the chains. and i hate the way the ratchet binders unscrew themselves when you hang them up.

    i'll be sorry to see the old snap boomers go, as i really like them a lot better than the ratchet type.

    Sorta like this, although now it looks a little neater with 3 ratchets on each side. But 6 ratchets fit comfortably with all 16 chains.

    In my bungee box there's a gum wrapper and 200 bungees, also my cheater bar.

    In my chain box, a lot of rusty chains....well I don't go in there.

    In my strap box I keep my straps and a snap binder in there, yes, one snap laying on the bottom. Don't know why, it was there when I got the truck. Looked comfortable.

    In my small side toolbox is two steel tarps, a ratchet binder of sorts, a few coil bunks(not sure how many), and some rubber pads.

    In my large toolbox there is my two lumber tarps, a steel tarp, a few straps, the rest of my ratchet binders. A few snap binders mixed in, my mudflaps since I've been hauling this step deck, and a broken bungee.


    I keep my good chains in my truck.

    Although they're piled higher than in this pic. When this pic was taken I had 3 coils on.
