I have actaully never lost a 10mm.

Probabaly because i never use it. All my stuff is old and american. My most worked on things are from 1948 to 1986. Only things i use a 10mil for are the few Canadian made things the 80s squares, and when working on my 90s chevys.
I dont do import, and i dont do new.
Thats one way to solve the missing #10 issue, haha.

Somehow I always manage to get hoods on by myself. It's not fun, but it can be done.

Trucker's Hitch/Knot, I prefer rope over ratchet straps, too. Can use one long rope to secure an entire load and untie it quickly when it's time to unload.
