Hack #1

If you have a lot of files that need sorting and you don’t have an available folder at hand. Try improvising one, find any hard paper that could serve as front and back cover. Then, punch several holes at the sides of the paper as well as the files evenly. Insert the zip tie on those holes, do not pull it all the way through. Cut off the excess tails.
