Ridge Wallet - How to install the cash strap - NEW and improved video! 4K

[@davidweaver3726]

Until I watched this I was about to just throw my ridge wallet away and get a new one. I was so frustrated. In the end - what did it for me was the clear video and step by step you covered. Especially starting with the metal plates (inside pieces first) then working outward. A shorter video I watched did each side first and confused the heck out of me. Thanks for saving my sanity :)

[@BUCKSGEARBOX]

Glad to help out! Thanks for watching and for the kind words!

[@charlesthomaswimsattsr.4219]

Thank you. I needed every minute of your installation video. I could not have figured it out without your help. I have also been reminded why I didn’t pursue a career as a plastic surgeon!!! I love my ridge wallet!

[@BUCKSGEARBOX]

Glad to help! Love my Ridge Wallet as well!!

[@ronparker788]

You deserve a Nobel Prize for this video. I watched two other videoes and read the online instructions from Ridge, and they were all awful. You video was simple and accurate. Thanks so much!

[@BUCKSGEARBOX]

Haha thanks! Glad to be of help!!

[@Mrcheezncracrks]

Thanks man I really appreciate it. I broke down my ridge trying to put the AirTag money clip on, but couldn’t put my wallet back together. I was so confused. My wife bought me a ridge about a year ago and I’ve been using it every single day having to go back to Wallet just really hurt me because they’re so bulky, this is a minimalist wall and I love it! Thanks man for the detailed video!

[@BUCKSGEARBOX]

You're welcome! Super glad it helped!!

[@MichaelRobinson-tc5xi]

Thank you for the video! I just got the ridge wallet and AirTag strap for Christmas and had no clue how to put them together. This video really helped!

[@BUCKSGEARBOX]

You’re very welcome! Happy Christmas!!

Good morning brother, thank you & I appreciate you & your time. Thanks a million

Great video, I actually watched the entire video 👍🏾

[@marklouis4524]

Great video ! Could not figure out how to install the cash strap with the AirTag without watching this !

[@BUCKSGEARBOX]

Hey thanks! Glad to have helped some 🙂

[@georgen9241]

Great video, I 1st received my ridge wallet when it 1st came out 6-7 years ago, bought it when it was $60. purchased the money clip and an extra cash strap. So last night I took apart my wallet to clean it and notice that the elastic strap was 3/4's ripped, so I changed it cleaned it and used your video to put it all back. Thanks.

[@BUCKSGEARBOX]

Thanks!! I didn’t know they were only 60 at some point hah! That’s really cool man! I’m glad the video helped!!

[@georgen9241]

@@BUCKSGEARBOX yea, when I was looking for a slim wallet I saw the ridge, and I thought $60 was too much now there over $100.

[@Colorofhieu]

Omg thank you so much!!! 🎉🎉🎉 their video changing from the OG wallet to the AirTag was very confusing. You are the man!

[@BUCKSGEARBOX]

Haha glad to help! Thanks for watching!!

[@Bilbo56]

I’m also a ham radio operator my suggestion to you would be to ask him to fit some filters I just have to be artichoke. He will understand what this means and that should suppress the noise from his amateur radio signals. I’m also into ridge wallet snacks. The reason I am watching this video

[@BUCKSGEARBOX]

Thanks David! It's so very rarely an issue that I'm not worried about it at all! He's the nicest guy in the world too haha. But thanks! And thanks for watching!

[@Nemes1sz]

This video explains everything clearly. Thank you. Also where can I buy that tool you use

[@BUCKSGEARBOX]

Thanks so much! That is a JourneyToolCo driver. It’s a small maker who I’m not sure is still actively making them. But check them out online journeytoolco on instagram!

[@doreensimon5343]

Excellent video! Thank you so much for making it easy to follow.

Great walk through, very easy to follow.

Thank you! Great video!

[@BUCKSGEARBOX]

Thanks man!

[@richardriglin4148]

I enjoyed your video thank you, I didn't think you were rambling you and it was very Imformitive, I was very interested in this video as I have the wallet with the same elastic money clip, and will need I'm sure to change it one day, so thank you so much for doing this for us.

[@BUCKSGEARBOX]

Thanks for the kind words! Glad to be a help!!

[@PoisonIvyLeague]

Great video. The carbon fiber AirTag hold literally destroyed my AirTag, as it was unable to come out in one piece. Terrible design and an obvious flaw. This video helped me reassemble the wallet sans AirTag holder.

[@BUCKSGEARBOX]

That stinks! Sorry it happened but glad the video helped you out!

[@sunshinelizard1]

Great instructions, thank you! No need to belabor the fact that you are making a new video to replace the old, just say I'm making a new and better video and be sure to put the link to this one on the old one. I just skipped over that rambling about why you're making a new video, it got repetitive. However, your instructions are perfect, so thank you!

[@BUCKSGEARBOX]

Thanks! Glad it helped!

[@speelbergoMF]

I can't get a warranty replacement without the serial number. Where do i find it???

[@BUCKSGEARBOX]

I've looked around and can't find any info on where it is. I'll keep looking and if I find out will let you know!

[@cryptokram]

Thank you for the video- I did put it on backwards 😅 while you said don’t do it. Hadn’t changed mine in awhile so thanks for the refresher and lite comedy.😊

[@BUCKSGEARBOX]

Hah! Been there for sure 😂 Thanks for watching and for the kind words!

[@cliftonschuh1363]

Thanks for this video, I took mine apart and put together incorrectly. Thanks again

[@BUCKSGEARBOX]

Welcome!! Thanks for watching!!

[@zachhelton6980]

i accidently bought the strap airtag when i have a money clip wallet. is there any way to install the cash strap airtag to the wallet?

[@BUCKSGEARBOX]

Hey, so I don’t have any experience with the air tag accessories. But typically I’ve seen people can only do one or the other (cash strap or money clip). That’s what the air tag strap looks like to me from the pics. Probably meant to replace the clip altogether. Maybe someone else can comment and clear that up for both of us!

[@Tanneritefilledfido]

You can save that strap and make it like new using an electric lint remover

[@briank.8925]

Great vid ✔️ Got my Ridge as an Xmas gift and it came with the money clip installed. Been 6 weeks and the clip was poking my leg too much, so I got the strap.

[@BUCKSGEARBOX]

Awesome! I remember that being a thing too! Thanks for watching!

[@aaronmaloney8539]

Watched and followed along as I installed my new strap and plate. Perfect video. You earned yourself a sub by making it easy for me, along with quality commentary! Great job and thank you so much! P.S. First time taking my Ridge apart since I got it in 2017. Had no idea how dirty it could get! And I thought the original strap was just the messy part. 😂

[@BUCKSGEARBOX]

Thanks for watching and for the kind words! Yeah mine has gotten pretty gross over the years as well :)

[@barryl923]

Thanks for the video - Any views (or caution shared!) to putting the elastic on the inside if dont want to have a strap?

[@BUCKSGEARBOX]

If you’re ok with the money clip you won’t have elastic on the outer part of the wallet. The cash strap elastic and the original elastic bands work differently. Cash strap elastic definitely goes on the outer part.

[@Glennwulf]

Ok I just learned from watching this that you can put the metal plate back on the new cash strap. Dammit, I've gone days thinking the replacement straps just didn't come with that plate. I got so excited that I paused your video to run and do this and sure enough I poked some holes in the new strap. Nothing terrible though and it won't hurt it but I should have kept watching to see how you did it first haha.

[@BUCKSGEARBOX]

Hah! That’s great! I gave this quite a few tries and failed in quite a few ways before I made these vids! All good! Now we really know how it works 😎👍

[@gregforcey827]

Very thorough and well done explination. Does ridge cover the elastic strap under warranty or did you buy a replacement?

[@BUCKSGEARBOX]

Thanks very much! Here's the info according to Ridge: Wallets: Ridge warrants that all Wallets are free from manufacturing defects and will function as intended for the life of the product. Your Lifetime Warranty will include Replacement Parts in the event of failure or loss of Elastic, Screws, Inner Plates, and/or Money Clip. This warranty does not cover lost, stolen, or disposed of wallets; scratches, dents, discoloration from wear and tear, chips and/or scrapes on the Outer Plates; damages caused by accident, abuse, neglect, shock; improper use or storage of the product; unauthorized modifications or repairs. My interpretation is that they would cover an elastic strap if it failed. I don't know if they would send you a new one if it just got beat up and frayed.

[@dondolen7465]

What is that screw driver ur using? Never seen one like it.

[@BUCKSGEARBOX]

Haven’t rewatched this video in a while but it’s most likely my Turas driver from Journey Tool Co It’s my edc gear fixer go to and lives on my desk!

[@BreadBirb9628]

Just got the new carbon fiber 3k and on both sides 2 of the screws just won't budge, this led to 2 screws on one side being stripped. Can i fix this or do i just send it back?

[@BUCKSGEARBOX]

Back in the day they sent extra screws and the bit driver with a new wallet. Not sure if they do now? I might send that one back and ask for a replacement.

[@joannothing]

Thank you! 👍🏻

[@BUCKSGEARBOX]

Thanks for watching!

[@jakenorthcutt3630]

Why are my two black straps separate on the new money band I bought?

[@BUCKSGEARBOX]

Hmmm. Might be something new that I haven't seen yet? I'll look around that's interesting!

[@BUCKSGEARBOX]

Did you get the newish leather cash strap? Looks like those are separate pieces but I'm not familiar with them... I may look into getting one cause it looks pretty nice 🤷‍♂️

[@RRBOYCEIII]

Thank you

[@BUCKSGEARBOX]

Welcome! Thanks for watching!!

[@HRIPhotography]

I had a cash strap on mine from the factory and I got rid of it because it became a real pain in the rear. The plate kept coming off. I had it less than a year and switched to the money clip.

[@BUCKSGEARBOX]

Yep! I’m very happy we have the option for both! Thanks!!

[@derekm6236]

Good video, but I can't understand why people pay so much for the Ridge, when the Chinese clones at a tiny fraction of the price ($6.50) are so good.

[@BUCKSGEARBOX]

Thanks! Yeah, the entry cost is a thing for sure. I do think the quality of Ridge is pretty high. Some of the knock-offs I’ve seen have been pretty shady looking but others look great! One thing to remember is Ridge kind of came on the scene early and have been around forever. So a lot of other companies are jumping in (which I think is good!) I have met 3-4 people with clones that love them! Good to have choices! Also: I’ll be giving an Ridge and an Axwell wallet away in two different GAW’s when my subs reach 1000 so if you want a shot at a free one keep your eyes open 😎👍

[@Dwayne4007]

My cash straps came in two different pieces... wtf

Its like every time you are about to explain how to do what the video was for, and you tell a rediculous side story, I understand you are trying to help but this was not it
