![http://bings.ca/images/parts/zipties.jpg](http://bings.ca/images/parts/zipties.jpg) i was in there buying a bench grinder and nearly started crying… a 50 pack for 49 cents… thats half the price of Dollarama and all of those ones have been breaking on me… like the second you feed the teeth through the face of the ziptie the tab breaks and its useless… i fucking hate dollorama zipties now i stocked up for all of 2007 and likely well into 2010. ---

so what, i can return them at Ct, but not at dollorama… i use zipties to hold the spacers into the multi-link arms and i have been having a hell of a time with the dollorama ones lately… i’m not exactly aching to spend $100a year on zipties when i can spend $10 on cheap zipties. plus its a huge waste of time to have to make special trip when i run out… that wont happen again for a long as time. mark, buying this many packs saved me like $14…lol… thats lunch for tomorrow and the next day. plus it was really funny. ---

nice, but i probably have the biggest zip tie ever!! check it out! its almost 1/2" thick. and 6 ft long. lol i can hold two 240s together with this [![http://img143.imageshack.us/img143/3374/picture0101po1.jpg](http://img143.imageshack.us/img143/3374/picture0101po1.jpg)](http://imageshack.us) [![http://img143.imageshack.us/img143/1821/picture0100lc4.jpg](http://img143.imageshack.us/img143/1821/picture0100lc4.jpg)](http://imageshack.us) i personally use the thick black ones from honda. they never break. therefore, thats the reason my front lip is bolted tegether cause its was in two pieces. ---

chris (canadiandrifter) brought home steel lined, foot-long, black cable ties last year from work… like 10 packs of 250 or something… fucking SICK zipties… but they’re too strong… prolly almost as strong as a bolt… whats the point of that? hell, the ratio is now killed. ---
