An IKEA bag may do if its 25ft.

Or even a strap like this http://www.restormate.co.uk/epages/15094.sf/en_GB/?ObjectPath=/Shops/15094/Products/0030a

I had a bag made out of leather and its still going strong after two years of solid use.

Cheers

This keeps each one separate and makes it easy to keep particular lengths together.

Even tie them onto the handle of the machine you use them with.

I also have an upholstery tool for my spotter which has an annoying solution line, I use the strap to secure it to the vac; hose.

Many uses for them.

Shorty.

Post by: Allan Simmons on February 28, 2012, 03:12:23 pm: The Alltec ones wash down as well. We have some others, I can't remember where from, that are a heavy duty woven material but they get filthy and don't wash well.
