Note on zip ties.
The ones we used when I was an LEO were quite a bit wider than the ones you can buy at the auto-parts store. This is partially so they hold even better but mostly so they don't cut in and bind off circulation which is easily done with smaller zip ties.
Unless you are in a dire circumstance do NOT use automotive type zip ties in this fashion EVER as they are far too easy to overtighten. If you tourniquet somebodys hands or feet and they are crippled because of it you -will- get raked over the coals.
