I have used hooks to hang them off of the implement itself. Sometimes, I will use nylon rope to tie them up.

A loop of thin chain or rope seems to work for me.

Never worried about it.

Bungee cord some, others I use the chain that is on the shaft guard that keep it from turning when in use. In both cases I have it from the top link connection point.

I do the same. And I try to keep the shaft angled down slightly to keep the moisture drained out.

Same here, But it is in a building now so no rain on it.

I have a board I set mine on. It is just enough to keep it out of the dirt.
