Clever Inventions to Make Rewinding Ratchet Straps Fast and Easy
The Dynello Accu Winder and the Bumble Bee Strap Winder

That would be fine for me, as I only ever deal with a handful of straps. But for the professional trucker who has to travel down the length of their flatbed or step-deck trailer winding strap after strap, this Bumble Bee Strap Winder is a clever solution:
