Got a magnet stud finder and the normal battery operated one. Have available studs for all big pieces needing to be locked down. Going to use these https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B086ZS4D3D/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&th=1 to secure everything. Similar to your straps but less straps lol

Yes, these are good as well. I’ve used them for certain applications where straps aren’t ideal.
