    Yep. It does keep the strap rolled up neatly, but it takes some effort to get them off the winder at times. Overall its not bad could use some improvements but it beats the hell out of doing it by hand. I had to one day when I lost my winder. 30 minutes later my 12 straps were rolled up and my wrists were sore lol

    I got the 10094 and even with putting my rubber bands on I can do 20 straps in about 5-10 minutes.

    You have MAD SKILLS!!!! Lol where'd you order your rubber bands from? I've seen a few places that sell them but they're expensive.

    I got em from the truck stop. Expensive, but oh well. Equipment write off. I'm sure you can fine em online for less than 6 bucks, but I just said screw it. Bought 6 packs of 5

    Rubber bands that go around your straps to keep them rolled up tight.

    I have got to get me some of those. It's nice and neat and pretty under your bunk...mine looks like a hurricane went through there seems like everytime I deadhead someplace all my straps that were once rolled up nice and neat are now half unrolled and all over.

    That's why I still use the bands. When they are all in there, they stay all neat. When I have 8 or more on the load....lol
