    Default RT Side bag shock cord divider

    Today I did a simple DIY project where I created a shock cord divider within each of my RT side bags. For a while I've wanted some way to stash small items in the "lid" side of the bag. I also wanted something that would put a little pressure on the items in the bag to help them stay in place. You can see what I did through the attached photos. I hope it works as I anticipate. The only thing I had to purchase was a few feet of 1/8" shock cord as already has the other items.

    Default Like your solution

    I like your inner bag bungee solution. I may do something similar. Thanks for sharing.
