Thank you for putting together this video. I have 5 of the Flat Pack Storage Boxes that I carry in my Jeep. I'm still trying to get organized. I want to see if you've thought about using the STORAGE BOX FOAM DIVIDERS? I know the dividers are slightly taller than the Flat Box.
@bluox11 күн бұрын
Organization is always a goal for me and I don't think I will ever be completely satisfied. I do not use the dividers because most of the stuff in my storage boxes is large enough to make them unusable. If I was storing a lot of smaller things they would probably help find stuff a lot easier. Good luck on your organizing efforts and thanks for watching!

I think the dirt from packing/transporting/dumping the leaves at a local dump left alot of room for tiny particles to make their way down the arm. The arm began to bind. Anywho, I took it to a shop this morning and they said it just looks like the bearings need to be regreased so they used a marine grease spray and then a crimson valvoline grease.

Then the white wire I’m assuming is a positive wire which gets connected individually? Is there a reason both red wires get connected together, is that how KC designed it? Or did they design it so the red wires were individual so the upper and lower lights are separate? If that makes any sense but I will copy what you did this helps a lot thank you!!!!
