    The whole in the side of the package idea to remove the zip ties from the bag is good, thanks.

      Good idea. I just make a small 45° angle cat at one of the corners. I can remove 1 at a time this way, too.

    Great video! For idea 4/70, please don't tighten the zip tie against the tree trunk. Trees continue to grow in width, so a tight zip tie will harm the tree. Be sure to leave some space so the tree can thrive...loosening/replacing the zip tie as the tree grows.

    • @zaphodrahja
      @zaphodrahja Месяц назад +12

      I was going to say this too, to keep loose, also better if wrap with something soft because when trashing in the wind can still cut into the trunk.

      @anitajinfla9762 Месяц назад +8

      I've used thin strips of a cloth to secure and tie.
      Definitely have to check often so even if a zip tie is used, it won't get embedded or hinder tree/plant growth.

    • @SamSung-fp2vj
      @SamSung-fp2vj Месяц назад +5

      Flowing the tree to flex also strengthens it...

    • @dshe8637
      @dshe8637 Месяц назад +4

      Yes, was going to say that zip ties aren't good for plants. A strip of stretchy fabric is better. Old tights are perfect

    Fabulous video, lots of great ideas! However, for the love of God do not use scissors, snips, or wire cutters to cut them off!!! It leaves a wicked sharp chunk sticking out that can cut you or the next person very badly. One tech I know laid his forearm open to the artery on one hiding down inside a cabinet. As a telecom tech, I was provided a set of flush-cut pliers specifically to use with tie wraps. Also called zip tie cutters. We were absolutely forbidden to use anything else to cut tie wraps. Put the flat side of the flush-cut against the head of the tie and it trims the end off perfectly flush with no sharp end. Every single day I curse other cable monkeys who used their snips to cut tie wraps when I have to come in behind where they worked and left all those little vicious thorns sticking out. Take a little time and do it right! Please! I am never without my flush-cuts on the job and frequently end up trimming off ones I find sticking out where I am working. Safety first! A recent coworker was so happy with it he swiped mine after I loaned it to him for a day. I wasn’t too upset about it since I made a convert!
