if you have to zip tie your socks together to avoid losing them in the wash, you've undoubtedly got much more serious problems than a missing sock or two..
@9:53 It is not good practice to coil cables in this manner as it puts a lot of unnecessary stress on the conductive wires as well as impedes electrical signals (can't remember the name of the phenomenon but basically it starts generating a magnetic field if the wires aren't properly insulated/shielded (cheap cables))
Number one zip tie hack is the never ending supply of random size/length FREE zip ties....how? Simply by saving EVERY zip tie that comes securing various products you constantly buy....simply by snipping all those ties as close to the head as possible you will harvest a zip tie....just make sure to cut on the side BEFORE it is gripped by the tang in the head! In other words the OTHER end not physically molded to the head! DUHH then simply pull out the "tail" (that piece is trash) what you are left with is a perfectly usable albeit shorter than it originally way zip tie of random sizes from teensy to massive depending on the product it came securing! Some are even quite long depending.....generally I harvest far more zip ties than actually ever even need....ALSO regarding the short lengths? Do NOT forget that zip ties of identical original sizes CAN be zipped together to make a longer tie! And yes I know zip ties are relatively cheap to buy but the point is WHY? IF you can avoid it? Every little bit of recycling certainly DOES help the planet! Thoughtless waste is just SO uncool!
9:53 DO NOT Put coils around you chargers! A friend of mine has a kid about 10 now but about a year ago she had rapped 4 or 5 metal pipe cleaners around her phone charger and it caught fire. She luckily managed to catch it very early but do not put anything metal coiling around chargers or wires 🚫🚫📵
