With the consistent thefts around here I have had the idea of making a massively overkill motorcycle security chain.
Obvious pro's and cons are that it would be expensive, and stupid heavy thus not practical for commuters. However fixed installs at apartments/garages would be good. It will weigh around 8lb per foot. Cost will depend on the final decision of the grade/type of chain/coating. But I am aiming for $200-400 without a lock and depending on length.
And no, I'm not quite talking anchor chain here. But close! The idea is to surpass the capacity of anything portable and take >5min with a grinder to get through.
I was thinking of carrying it to help secure my trailer when we are out on the road. To help cut costs if I could find buyers buying in bulk would lower overall costs of the chain. So I want to know from BARF if there is enough interest in such a thing. Maybe with Budman's approval a logo'd cover could be made and give a kickback of each sale as a donation to the forum.
So let me know if I have gone completely off my rocker or if there is enough interest to buy a 1000lb barrel of chain.
