Members Hags Posted July 18, 2022 Author Members Report Posted July 18, 2022 Thanks guys. We have mattocks over here as well. The pulaski was designed by (wait for it)Big Ed Pulaski in 1910 as tool to help make fire breaks when fighting forest fires. Some debate ongoing with that.. I thought about a strap and buckle as well, but, in the end the bungee won out for lack of a proper size buckle. Quote Not so retired RN. Living on the Washington Peninsula.
Members dikman Posted July 18, 2022 Members Report Posted July 18, 2022 I had to look to find out what the heck a "Pulaski" is. Nice neat job, as for the bungee cord it's a simple effective solution without messing around with buckles. Once it loses its bungeeness it will be simple, and cheap, to replace.
