After hang around here awhile, and since I was cleaning/straighting out the truck, thought I would open and check out the Belt BOB.
I always carry it in the truck, use to carry on my belt when hunting.
Most of the hunting stuff (emergency kit) now in fanny pack or pockets.
I always hated moving stuff from one coat/bibs to another, so now most every one of the coats have redundant basics.

Deer (bow/gun/hot/cold)
Duck
Turkey
Up-land

Matches
lighter
fire-flint kit
1 aid
folding knife/sheath knife
mini binocs
compass
25 ft cord
insect repellent
Carmex -lip balm,(either end)/ fire starter
(and what ever that trip requires) Ammo. water snacks walki/talkies

Any way, this kit is belt worn/truck carried and has evolved over 25-30 years. Started just as a plastic 2 piece cigarette box (waterproof) , now is a little bigger.

The nylon strapping AKA "mule tape" or "bull line" is used by phone/cable companies.
They use it once and pitch it. Ask them if you could have it, unless it was used to pull too big a cable it should be all right to use.
Some installers just get it dusty and throw away.
Works great for jug lines.
