Discuss, debate and divulge your best zip tie story! :D Boom poles, wire wrangling...

I just repaired a wicker laundry basket. Beat that.
 
Cleaning off my desk, finding a bundle of zip ties that had been sitting there for YEARS (taken from an old job). Thinking, I don't need these, I've never used them and they're just clutter, so in the trash they go.

Two months later, at home depot buying zip ties because, of course, I needed them. *sighs*

Less a "yay zip ties" story, and more a "josh is an idiot" story. Mostly because I have more of those!
 
In school once i fliped a kids backpack inside out, put all of his stuff back in it, then i ziptied it shut from the inside :lol:. Is that not the type of zip tie stuff you were looking for?? :lol:
 
I forgot my belt once and used a zip tie to pull two loops together.:)

When I was in the military we would carry them in our K-pot webbing, just in case.
 
Where did the nickname C47 come from? Is it C-47? Good film trivia.

Yes, R-17 or maybe even ZT-9er? Dunno. ;)
