[QUOTE="Shanman, post: 5792122, member: 4101"] One thing I do to help with theft or for a lack of better phrases, is to secure my equipment so that tools have to be used to detach it from its anchor point. Doesn’t matter if it’s an earth anchor or extension cable, teenage boys and some adults just can’t help themselves. If you use quick links then use pliers to tighten them down very tight, they won’t back off by hand. If you use rivets (J hooks) close with pliers and open with C-7 cable cutters…..thinking Newt Sterling and Clint showed this method in one of their vids. I say this because the only drawback with “white” DPs is that they catch the human eye also. When I was young I roamed up and down creeks all the time, never know who’s on your land. [/QUOTE]
