When rolling cables, be aware that there are many different types, and they usually go in different places. As a general rule, it’s best to keep them separated so that stowing them is both accurate and swift. Note in each trunk what size and type of cables are already rolled and packed. Follow that lead.

Cases and their respective lids are usually identified by matching numbers, words like “FRONT” and “BACK” written across both the lid and case, color codes or the like. Pay attention – putting on the wrong lids, or putting them on upside down, can warp or otherwise damage cases.

Attitude
Number 1: To be early is to be on time. To be on time is to be late. To be late is to not show up! Do not impose your own personal dictates. Be observant. Ask questions.
