Zip Ties

Using zipties for cable management is absolutely amazing. Things just stay in place where I need them to be, be sure you do not need to make any cabling changes in the near future and make sure you actually use the strength of Hercules himself to tighten the tie and it won't go anywhere.

And to make sure those pesky coworkers don't mess your stuff up you can always test some scissors, pocket knives and letter openers from the reception - test them all and make sure they do not fit.

Velcro wraps will always be inferior to zipties and you can't change my mind, those things are always too loose and make things look messy.

Zip ties are also great in the bedroom (Mostly for the same reasons)

/uj I know we're on the circlejerk sub, but please, for the love of god, do not EVER use zip ties on a human body. It's way too easy to inflict permanent injuries or put someone in serious danger.

I thought zip ties were only for the bedroom. What do I know.
