Recently Graham Solutions, premier designer and manufacturer of custom cargo nets, was contacted by Revcom/Alsocup of Corona, CA to quote a bunch of custom designed mesh cargo nets to help clean up the oil on the beaches and waterways near the Gulf of Mexico states.
As the government and BP continue to lag on this issue, we’ve discovered something very interesting. This company Revcom who is currently working on generating a quote for the EPA, Fish and Game, Oil Clean-up crews and the Federal Government, has a solution using polymer pellets which have, through many studies, proven extremely effective for cleaning up oil by absorbing the oil and creating great big pancakes of oil and polymer which can be quickly disposed of and/or recycled. Watch video below to see how this product works.
The thing we found interesting was that the companies or organizations that are responsible for cleaning up the oil, or who are normally contracted to do so, do not like to use these polymer pellets. Why? Because it reduces their billable hours by up to 75% according to Dave Naylor of Revcom/Alsocup. When we heard this we couldn’t believe it. While animals, birds and other sea life are dying by the thousands and the waters are being polluted, not to mention all the money it’s costing our fishing, other industries and our economy for crying out loud, these people are worried about making money off it. This is a scandal that needs to be known to the public. And we fear that this scandalous activity goes much deeper than just the clean-up crews.
So, what is our role in this with regard to making custom cargo mesh nets? Well, it’s really very simple. While these cleaning crews walk around with shovels scooping up oil, they could be tossing many of the mesh pillows that we could sew, filled with the polymer pellets, on the beaches, shallow waters, marshes, etc…to be retrieved easily later, then to be recycled and used again. This would save an enormous amount of time and money. We can also construct a ‘curtain’ type of mesh net containing pellet holding cells that would be hung from the booms of boats or toss the pillows into a shrimp boat ‘scooper’ which would slowly drag these curtains filled with the polymer pellet along the water surface in the open ocean and marshes, etc…
Why is this not being done already? We are seriously disturbed by the quality and time of response from our government and these other organizations. We hope you watch the video below and maybe speak out about it!

If you’re a truck enthusiast as we are, you’ve probably been wondering…how do I get my quads and my boat to the lake this weekend without having to use my trailer, and Johnny’s truck? Well, we have the answer. It’s the Diamondback ATV Truck Cover. Click on the link above and watch this video, it will simply blow your mind. And if you’re a construction buff, you can always easily remove the ATV accessories and mount a ladder rack and a cab guard to haul your work stuff.
Whether you’ve got a mid-size truck, a full size short bed or a long bed pickup, there’s a Diamondback Truck Tonneau Cover to fit your needs. It’s not really a traditional tonneau cover as you would imagine a tonneau cover, and it’s not really a tonneau cover at all, it’s a folding truck cover that uses a stable center piece to hold to panels, front and rear, one opening from the bulkhead or near the cab, and the other opening from the tailgate, both towards the center piece. And there’s no drilling in most cases.
Mounting the Diamondback cover is easy. First thing you do is use C-clamps, two on each side, to mount the center piece. Put on the clamps loosely but tight enough so you can mount the panels. Stand up in the truck with one panel at a time, and at a 90 degree angle shimmy the panel onto the attachment with the pin. Once you get the panel on there, slam that sucker into place. Once you fold the panel down, the pin on the panel attachment will hold it in place, making it impossible for the panel to come loose. Repeat this action for the second panel, and once you get both panels on, get down off the truck, check 360 degrees around the rails, make sure it’s all lined up the way you want it, and crank down those C-clamps nice and tight. Next thing you want to do is adjust the locking rods to make sure you get a nice tight fit. Basically what you want is for the black rubber piece on the end of the rod to hit the bottom of the rail and stop. Once the panel is closed and you find the right setting, you should have to crank the panel knob to get it to close, it shouldn’t be easy because you want that locking rod to be forced under the rail with your strength, and once you force it under the rail, it will pull the panel down, forcing the rubber seal under the perimeter of the rail to seal the bed, protecting it from moving during driving and from water entering the bed.
Once you’ve completed this task, follow basic instructions and mount any accessories that you’ve purchased, either for the ATV package which includes adapter bars, ramps and rails, or a cab guard or ladder rack. Diamondback also offers other accessories such as cargo boxes for under the cover and light bars. And if you need more tie downs, you can always purchase those extra cleats separately and mount them yourself where you want them, just make sure to drill where you’re able to attach the nut on the other side of the aluminum. You should always check under any piece of aluminum you’re drilling into to assure that you’re able to complete the task without issues.
The Diamondback ATV package comes standard with the Diamondback HD cover and 12 tie down cleats pre-installed and it holds up to 1600 lbs, so don’t be shy to ride your ATV’s right up on the truck up against the rails and tie that baby down nice and tight.

Graham Solutions specializes in the sale, manufacture and custom design of many pickup truck cargo management systems including heavy duty cargo nets and related products.
After a ton of requests and the simple demand for a better site, the need for fewer customer clicks to reach their product destination and the fact that we finally found a web development company we can count on and trust, Graham Solutions has just released their new skin for www.cargocatch.com, a truck and auto accessory monster that is growing by the day.
Created by Bill Graham and designed by ASF Design of Canada, we are very proud of our new site. Though we have not created our new blog design yet which will enable customers to read about new truck accessory products and services we offer, we have launched the new “skin”, including all new products for truck cargo accessories and related vehicle products and services.
Not only do our customers now know that we sell truck accessories, as opposed to before when you didn’t know what the heck we did because our company is so diverse, they now can easily reach the products they’re looking for in fewer clicks, as well as view multiple detailed images of products, and video of many of the products we feature at the bottom of the product detail page.
The diversity and evolution of our company has lead us to this current site. About 10 years ago, Bill Graham developed a cargo management product for pickup trucks call ‘CargoCatch’ to hold groceries and other small cargo items in the rear of his pickup truck bed. This product was originally licensed to Bully Motorsports and offered in 2 sizes as ‘Pac Mule’, but their marketing was short of aggressive, and now is being re-designed by Graham and Load Handler of Chicago, to be released early this summer as ‘CargoCatch’, including a new ‘handcrank’ option for easier mounting. Load Handler is a smaller niche company and has a more aggressive marketing plan for ‘CargoCatch’.
Shortly thereafter, Graham began small manufacturing of the product in San Diego, California and Mexico. It was an evolution of grand proportions that he had no idea he would take on, eventually becoming one of the premier internet based resellers of truck cargo nets and other truck accessories, as well as many other accessories for many different types of vehicles including cars, boats, RV’s, SUV’s, ATV’s, Motorcycles and UTV’s.
We hope you take the opportunity to visit our new site and check out some of the videos, particularly those of Diamondback ATV products, which are the hottest new truck cover ATV based products available today.
Graham Solutions also offers contract sewing services in San Diego, California and Tecate, Mexico for multiple products, as well as the design and manufacture of heavy duty pickup truck cargo nets and more, Made in the USA. In addition, if you’re an inventor, product developer or entrepreneur, we can assist you with business start-up consulting, website development, sampling and prototyping of many products from a variety of industries including auto, aviation, marine, military and government.
We look forward to serving you. Call us for a quote on any of our products and services.

Well, now that the Obama administration and Congress have pushed this ridiculous health care bill through, we have a lot more to worry about, as far as our health and security are concerned, to sustain ourselves in this very quickly becoming Socialist, or worse, society we call the ‘Home of the Brave’.With a rule book a foot thick and more and more forms to fill out on a daily basis, it’s time you secure your personal belongings, as minimal as they’ve become.
Everybody I know is about to throw in the towel and set up shop in their truck or RV, OR, move out of the country all together.Camp grounds will be overrun with US citizens AND illegal aliens, literally living in or on their trucks, cars, SUV’s, UTV’s, RV’s and ATV’s.We are very quickly becoming a landscape that will be scarily similar to the film ‘Mad Max’.People will be fiercely competing for automobile based resources and fighting for space at the campgrounds in the so-called ‘Land of the Free’.
What do you think will be important for many of these people?You got it, SECURITY and more security!They’ll be buying, more than ever, products to protect and secure their families, keys, cash and other belongings.And where will they turn?You got it, the automotive industry and the internet.Sure, the price of gas might keep going up, but people will keep buying and stocking up on fuel and products which will ensure their security and ability to move around safely and securely without the worry of getting ripped off.
