    Here is a good tutorial.



    I prefer to use stainless safety wire as in the tutorial, it looks cleaner than the ties or hose clamps, and if you have the pliers and the wire you can use it for other purposes later on.

    You can get safety wire and safety wire pliers on Ebay pretty inexpensively, probably cost you about the same as the ties would when you buy the wrap, or you can find them at Harbor Freight.

    There are other tutorials on the net for how to use safety wire and pliers properly, be sure to practice a bit.

    here's a couple:
