    Default Hasp and Staple replacement

    This is probably coals to Newcastle for most of you fellows out there but I hadn't thought of this before and it really makes sense.......... I have been making boxes to hold power tools and have been using hasp and staples on most of them.. Didn't much like them but they are simple get & use.... Well last week I saw a mate who had used tonneau clips on his boxes and I really liked the concept............... here is a picture of a box that I removed the locking hasp and staple from and replaced it with a tonneau clip........ As I say, a lot of you folks will probably be already using something like this......... Took me 56 years to pick up on it!:eek:

    I too would like to know where you obtain them (actually sense I can't trot over to AUS for a rubber band, I wonder if they are on-line available) or by another name than tonneau clip? Any search comes up void or tonneau cover for a truck...?

    I got these from a motor spare parts shop. They are used to hold down the vinyl cover on the back of a ute................ The fellow whose idea it was originally gets his from a ship chandler...........
