LPT: If you have a lot of loose zip ties, well cut the head off of one and zip the rest onto that! (lemmy.world)

I cut the top of the pack, take one out, zip the bundle together so it won't fall off, pull one out when i needed it, then zip it tight each time. This one take too much initial effort to set up, especially when you have a tiny one.

Yeah, under the hood, hands covered in random cruddy engine fluids, and you want a specific color zip tie to tag wire harnesses, the absolute last thing you want is to try dealing with a plastic bag with oily hands..
