Anyone ever seen a lock with a captive eye that can tether to the something so i don't have to keep replacing them? We seem to be going through a lot of locks. :?
 
I put a loop of Home Depot accessory cord on each key, and color code the key/ lock with electrical tape, or paint. When not securing something, the keeper cord gets locked to the lock, and the key rides in the lock. If I'm locking something, I put that keeper loop on my gear shifter for the truck, or keep it with me. Multiple keys, naturally.

Whenever stored, lock it to something. I keep a lock on my chipper chains, and use a lock instead of a pin on my trailers.

Taping an extra set of truck keys under the truck very inconspicuously isn't a bad idea. $.05 of Grey Magic.
 
I use short lengths of light gauge chain. I have about 30 or so locks, I have 3 sets of 10 locks keyed the same, saves time and space on master key rings!
 
Where did you find 10 packs? I wish for one cam lock key for all my tool boxes, and one padlock key for all my padlocks.
