In Response To: Seeking: Great idea for attaching straps? (Kudzu)

Here is a link to the kind of buckles that I used. Scroll down to tie down buckles. http://www.rhtubs.com/store/cover-accessories.htm I think that they are better looking than most other buckles.

: I was going with magnetic hatches and have decided against that. Looking at
: options but I am leaning toward nylon (polypro?) straps and buckles. I
: like the traditional look. But I am looking for a good idea to attach them
: to the deck. I have plenty of stainless screws and upholstery washers but
: thats sort of ugly to me. I am farmiliar with the soft pad eye method of
: melting the ends too.

: Does anyone have any other ideas? I am just not sure what I want to do.
