Default Has anybody seen 1/10 ratcheting tie down straps?

Here is a pic in case you don't know what I'm talking about:


If nobody sells 1/10, any suggestions on how I would make my own, particularly what to use as straps?

Default Really? Where?

The ones I'm thinking of are the kind you find at Walmart, not the kind you see on big rigs. This is the kind of thing you strap a mattress to the top of an SUV with, not strapping logs onto a trailer.

They are about 2" wide and about 8' long before winding the ratchet. That would make the scalers 3/32" wide and just over 9.5" long.

I'd love to find some, or see some home made ones. I saw some in the for sale section last week, looked home made but pretty close.

I also saw what looked to be commercially made ratchet straps lately. Pic was with one holding down a spare tire on a flatbed. There are some sweet DIY versions out there too.

Here is a clever way to make something similar but not exactly ratcheting strap:

Ultimatly I'd like to find something like this. These are what I use on my 1:1 and would like to replicate them.

I'd really go for those. I'd rather have one of those tire ratchet straps that goes around the tire. I tried to make some myself but got stuck when it got to the ratchet part.
