CoolClasp – where we got the idea from

You are probably wondering where we go this great idea from.
How often have you been carrying a few things and wished that there was a way to strap them together to make it easier to carry.
Instead of having both hands full wouldn’t it be great if you could attach a laptop to your carry case. Many suitcases are easy to pull but have no facility to attach a laptop bag.
Many people end up pulling the bag with one finger on the laptop handle – or even worse, just resting it on the bag.
This is the idea that brought us the CoolClasp in the first place. Simple and easy to use and done take up much space in your bag.
CoolClasp – do it yourself

Hanging tools up goes without saying, but CoolClasps also make a convenient way to attach them to yourself when working.
You can also hang tools from convenient places and the clip allows you to move them quickly and easily. Multiple CoolClasps can store cables and wires separately and easily.
Heavy items can be hung up easily, each clasp can hold up to 70 Kilograms.
CoolClasp – dive dive dive

Apart from the obvious holding and storing and hanging up stuff, you’ll notice that coolclasps are ideal for quickly clipping something onto your belt or side and you can unclip at 20 metres with ease.
If you are carrying a bag or extra equipment, carry a CoolClasp too. I once "rescued" a metal box from 15 metres in Cape Town with a coolclasp, avoiding sharp edges but clearing out rubbish. go CoolClasp!
Superb method of attaching an underwater camera to you – use two CoolClasps, one on the camera, with a tight loop, and another on your belt. Insert hand into loop, unclip and use – then reclip and remove your hand. Underwater cameras can sink or rise – either way they’re a pain to chase.
CoolClasp – there is a painting in all off us

One of our greatest past times is doing a spot of DIY in our house. And one of them is painting and that quite often means a trip up a ladder. How often have you knocked something over while up there or didn’t have a secure place to put things like your paint bucket.
Deal for hanging paint pots from ladders or simply securing them conveniently. When you’re up high, a CoolClasp also makes a useful handhold when that ladder gets shaky.
Use with cause, of course, as a sharp grab could break the clip. But for pots and gentle re-balancing they are perfect.
CoolClasp – hang your bicycle
Hang your bicycle in those small hallways and outside, you can hang a bicycle from a single nail. Carry your bicycle – with all those bits, it can be hard to carry a bicycle in pieces – clip them all together, and sling it over your shoulder. Stack items using multiple CoolClasps.
TIP: Don’t hang your bicycle tyres up for long – they tend to warp and this can cause serious damage. Hanging tyres is only a temporary measure. But when they’re filthy and you need to move them, CoolClasps save your clothes from all that mud.
CoolClasp – use it while skiing or snowboarding

Since the UK is now nearly under a blanket of snow and the ski and snowboarding, you need something light and small that you take with you on you travels.
The CoolClasp is just the thing to hang your skis up easily when you’re walking back in the snow, wrap your clasp around the skis, click into position, and carry them over your shoulder using the strap.
Hang your snowboard or skis up using one or two CoolClasps. Hanging it up sideways using the front binding gives plenty of space for it to dry. A CoolClasp makes a most convenient short term fix for a broken or misplaced leash.
The CoolClasp weights only 40g and is very easy to pack up in your day pack or pocket. And the CoolClasp is easy and quick to use a ski carrier strap for when you are hiking.
Coolclasp – so, what is it?

The thing about Coolclasps that amazes me is that there is always some new nuance to using them.
Our ISP got one the other day and he tells me that he salvaged an old baby high chair with it, clipping the bits together so that the chair still works. It sounds dodgey and I told him that but we agreed it’s a lot better than the gaffer tape he had on there before.
I did something similar last month when my two year old managed to pull one of the wooden bits out of our banister upstairs. Its old and Victorian and replacing the whole thing would cost a fortune. So ta-da – one coolclasp clipped it to the ones either side and kept it intact and safe until I could find the time to reglue the broken bits.
And so it goes on. Everyone I know with young kids always has one million things hanging from their prams and this is perfect space for a coolclasp. My two year-olds new scooter is clipped happily to the buggy and no longer is it a mission to get him, his buggy, his scooter, nappy bag, coat, etc to the park.
