well welcome back to the Steve Roger today we're gonna have some fun and I'm going to show you a an
idea that I thought of myself and so far it's worked out good I've been trying this out now
for a couple of months and guys I think this is a great idea and it's all about bungee cords he
knows guys you seen these regular rubber ones I don't use these anymore for one reason really
it's because like I'm stretching that out as hard as I can and look at the stretch you have
to get so many different bungee cords the same size and I don't like these rubber ones I have
them up north of my camp holding open my two big doors and every season I have to change
these because they're just cracked like crazy all the way along here and they bust so you know what
they're just not doing it for me and then you got then I switch to these ones here guys this
one here you could see right about here in the middle it's starting to go and this is a fabric
one yeah you can see it stretches out a little bit more but of course it doesn't have the flexibility
and when the water gets to it guys another just yeah whoo job and then you get these ones here
now these ones here come in different lengths and everything else and you have to pretty much
match up the link that you need but does this ever happen to yous guys you see the end here guys put
it right there like this piece at the end here is just narrow breakdown and this thing is ready to
break at any time guys I don't like it at all it's a garbage so what I went with was this stuff here
guys you're not gonna believe this I've had this one here a sample in my truck now for at least
a month and I've used this to hold up my gas can I showed before the mods in the back of my truck
there guys this is all it is right here and this is the material and tick tick tick huh guys like
I can stretch this and you wouldn't believe like the flex of it is just unbelievable I'm going to
show you a perfect example coming up of what I've done to one of my my totes I always carry my still
it's like this combination trimmer that you can put attachments to and I always leave it on top
of one of my boxes then I carry my tools up with and of course you gotta fasten it down somehow and
I always used to struggle trying to find a bungee cord that could fit guys check this out here see
at the end here you know that is that's just 3/16 rod guys I get all this rod all the time for free
there's so many contractors around here they do a rule for they do any kind of service on a house
and they leave you know the placard out well after about three or four weeks the homeowner gets sick
and tired looking at that thing and they throw the plastic in the garbage and they throw the rods out
and they're like a big H tape and guys I just picked these up for free so you know I can make
a whole bunch of these things like you wouldn't believe let's go show you how I'm gonna do one
for you right here but guys I bought this material I paid around under ten dollars well maybe that
made about seven dollars for fifteen feet and I just ordered thirty three more feet of it for
under fifteen bucks are you gonna see that stuff plastered all over my camp I got all kinds of
ideas on how to use this and guys when you this does not fall off the rod at all and I'll show
you how it installs and guys check this out like I mean this is just unbelievable and it's strong and
you can double it up if you want to you can do all kinds of stuff with this so I'm going to show you
how I'm gonna do one for you and I'll show you how it all goes together okay so I'll show you
the finished product here guys I just Bend these up and I put them on my wire wheel to make sure
there's no sharp edges you know that's what you got to do you got to make sure there's obviously
no sharp edges and cuttings and everything else and here's one here that I've done and I just
stick it device now you could use a couple of pair of pliers I mean come on three-sixteenths is not
that tough and all I do is stick it in here then I get my hammer and you know just top it across
take it out stick it in the vise guys I just bend it down like this to the shape that you want you
can make all kinds of different shapes horseshoe shapes you can do all kinds of stuff like that
so now let's put it together okay guys so we've got the two pieces of metal here and they're very
simple and all I'm gonna do is you just take your piece and you just push it on and there's no you
know you're not putting anything on there you're not putting no no lubrication you're not putting
nothing and you can see how it starts there and you just push it in behind I just keep pushing
it you know and it'll eventually want to stop on you anyways you know and it takes a little
bit of pressure you know to to do it now that's on there like that now the more you pull on this the
tighter it makes it here and I thought that was pretty interesting and you know you can orientate
your your pieces any way you want but I mean it swivels around it moves and guys you know in real
time there you go you made one up and and that's it I mean guys it doesn't get any better not so
I'll show you how I cut them okay so you can use your small little reciprocating saw that kind of
stuff but guys I don't bother with that at all I just use my bolt cutters if you have bolt cutters
guys I can do like 50 pieces in like a minute so easy just snap snap snap the point of these and
I think that's just terrific so I hope you like that idea and I'm gonna show you an example of
what I've done on my my toolbox and I carry my still trimmer in let's take a look at that next
okay guys this is it right here and you can see I've got it all bungee corded down here and guys
like I mean this ain't gonna go nowhere I mean you could see how it's all done and it took me
maybe five minutes to make these things up take one bird here guys that's it so easy and could
you imagine like under under 15 bucks getting over 30 feet of this stuff guys I'm gonna have
my place just you're going to see this summer all kinds of this stuff I'm replacing all my bungee
cords with this and this is using for making slingshots and I thought that was just amazing
you know and I'll put a link down below to the exact specifications of the one that I got they
do come in different sizes and they're all metric and words here I'll show you what it looks like
inside guys I don't know if you're going to see that or not but it's about a quarter of an inch
on the outside and maybe an eighth of an inch on the inside and there was you know some that were
smaller diameter but guys this is this is the way to go my days of these bungee cord stuff is over I
can make all my own for next to nothing so I hope you liked that guys and if you haven't seen this
