Jim,

It is possible to use trine in place of zip ties in some applications. But
others are not so easily done with twine. like a regulator mouth piece.
impossible with twine ?? of course not, just a lot more difficult & messy
looking. Would I use a hefty zip tie to hold tanks together?? NO!! nor would I
use them to attatch lights, liftbags or scooters. For these things stainless
shackels and such work better. 

There is a place in your dive kit for zip ties, you just need to use common
sense. you must make sure that you are not using zip ties that have steel
retainers in them. This part must be either stainless or plastic.

As far as cheap goes. I would think that twine would be even cheaper than zip
ties.
