    Shovel, Axe, etc mounts.

    I just picked up some QuickFist clamps that I'm going to mount to my crossbars and roof rack. Figure these will be perfect for my trip to OBX to carry a shovel and the fishing poles... And instead of poles, ill carry an axe while wheeling/camping.

    Will post up pics once installed.

    What are you guys using?

    I keep a full sized shovel and ax on the roof rack. I just bought large heavy duty springs from a hardware store. No rattle, and they don't sun rot like bungees.

    These worked out quite well although i had to alter my installation plans a bit due to shovel handle length and load bar locations. Basically ended up using some SS clamps to secure the quickfist to the rack, then wrapped a few rounds of electrical tape just to hide the shiny metal.... and whaaalllaaaaaa

    not trying to derail thread or knocking any mounts. i just take my e-tool along. it does a great job while camping or wheeling and takes up virtually no room. just a thought. by the way, this is an e-tool
