In this episode I go over how I wrap up and store ratchet straps/tie downs when I'm done with them. Two methods: one uses a band that wraps around the strap, one needs nothing at all but the ratchet strap itself.

CHANNEL STATEMENT: This is a channel about my relationship with stuff. We all need to have a better relationship with the stuff in our lives - we have too much of it, and most of it’s junk. If nothing else I hope you take away with you an interest in the stuff in your life - a curiosity for how it’s made - why it’s good or bad - and perhaps even how build new stuff or fix what you’ve got. Having said that - the internet is a terrible place to learn anything. Unless you independently verify what you learn - you’ll never know if it was right or wrong or made up completely…. Unfortunately disinformation is both the currency and the bane of our era. I’m no expert in anything you’ll see here. I don’t want you to think that I am. Through my job I have access to people who are - and I’ve learned from them over the last couple of decades and become someone who is curious about stuff, brave about stuff , and foolish enough to try and make a youtube channel about my relationship with stuff all at the same time.
DISCLAIMER / PLEASE READ: In making this channel I will put more effort into making the content accurate, safe and correct than most - but that doesn’t mean I can’t be wrong. Accordingly I can’t guarantee or warranty any specific outcome for viewers should they attempt something similar to what they see on the channel. I encourage you not to copy projects you see here directly but build on them - discuss them with experts in your life, and make them better - make them work safely for you. We all need to figure out a better way to own stuff - this channel is meant to illustrate my experience with that, promote learning, have some fun, and challenge myself. Working with any tool or on any project can lead to unintended results - including injury and damage to property. Don’t work beyond your capability. In the same way I have to take complete responsibility for the outcome of my endeavours as recorded here, and my own safety and the safety of those around me - you have to do the same….. Use the information here at your own risk. Be safe, have fun, proceed with the appropriate caution for your situation…. - Навчання та стиль
J - hook or double J -hook is also known as a Wire hook . Wire hooks work well when used in conjunction with short chain extensions . Extensions incorporate a chain grab hook and a pear shaped ring which will wrap into a chain pocket or chain spool easily . 3/8” in size .
Thank you for this. Some of the videos are where the hook face is even with the strap when you lay it down, but my straps are where the hook sticks up from the strap when you lay it down, like yours. Your technique works like a charm. Nice job!
Glad it could help!
With the first method, the loose end is underneath when in use so could get caught under the ratcheted end.
Just bundled up my ratchet straps as in the first example and it works like a charm!! Great suggestion and thanks for sharing!!! 👍👍👍
Isn't your strap fed backwards in the 1st example?
Great videos! Thank you! Just combining the thoughts of two of your videos about ratchet straps, it led me to a question about feeding the strap through. In the other video, at 3:30, it mentions to feed the strap towards the handle, but in this wrapping video, it looks like it was gone the other way? Does this mean that after wrapping, you'd need to remove the entire strap to re-feed it? Thank you again! :)
I'd be curious how time efficient the first method is (I already do something like the second). I have to store and re-deploy straps multiple times a day with my new job, and it takes so much time.
How about using a Zip Tie around the bundle to secure the rolled up strap? They cut easily, are disposable, and easily replaced each time you need to store a strap.
How do you decide what size band is to be used on the strap?
thank you for not beating around the bush, great video.
Thanks for watching!
: As an alternative to the second method instead of trying to find out where to obtain those bands…why not try bicycle tire tubes . Cut the necessary length to fit and glue (super glue, gorilla glue or others) and voila, instant and cheap bands. Note: I, personally, have not tried this but it was a thought on the fly while reading this. Might work - might not idk. I think it’s worth a try tho - especially if you have old tire tubes lying around.
No more than I use them , this was handy.
Great technique here !! Unfortunately I don’t see a link to “ The Bands”. Never seen these and never heard of a “ Cargo Store “ but I could use these bands for other things as well. ( note: if I can’t find the bands I plan to use a wire tie ( like a long bread tie ) across each end of the ratchet, about a third of the way in from each end. ( but I’d REALLY appreciate knowing where I can get these or at least a better name for them and possibly a company. Thanks much. P.S. the how to use vid you made was also superb, as I’m sure I’ve looked something like a 3 stooges movie in the past getting these things to work correctly. Cheers !!
for the bands, here's a link to the product I used: www.kinedyne.com/heavy-duty-strap-bands/p/80144 - if you call the 1-800 number on the website - they'll help you out with ordering or to find a supplier local to you. Here's another dealer: www.cargoequipmentcorp.com/Kinedyne-Heavy-Duty-Strap-Band-5-Pack - wouldn't use any kind of wire to wrap up your straps - you could slowly eat away at your webbing - and you don't want that....
Had enough of spaghetti mess that is in my ATV locker...thanks for the tips!
Glad it could help out….
Where can i purchase the bands? thanks
Thank you.
You're welcome!
What's the blue band called that you used to contain the tie down strap, and where can I order some?
found them at a place called Zups. They are called, Heavy-Duty Strap Storage Band
Cool
