While breaking out a fresh package of tie-wraps
it occurred to me that Listers might find this
"tiewrap management tip" useful.

I leave them in the as-supplied, heat-sealed bag
and wrap the buckle-end of the bundle with two, #65
(Post Office) rubber bands. If tie-wraps had
eyes, they'd be bugging out.

Then cut off the extreme end of the plastic
bag just inside the seal line.

Now you can pull one tie-wrap at a time
while its brothers remain ensconced
in their protective cocoon relatively free
of dirt. This has been especially useful for
bundles of tie-wraps that reside in my truck-box.

I've now forgotten where I read a ridiculously easy tip that has worked for me for years.  When you get your bag of tie-wraps slit it in the *middle and across* the direction the tie-wraps lay in the bag. They won't fall out and it's easy to reach in and pull one (it has to bend, of course) out the slit.

Took it one step further sorted  and re-bagged all the piles of assorted Ties rattling around in my "tie wraap bin" put in plastic sandwich bags to achieve the desired results.Great idea and better than just bundling with a tie wrap.Phil
