How do you use the fastening strap?

It is a Velcro strap that you can use around the tubes to keep them together. Or use it to hold other things like a bundle of USB cord together.

You can also just use a shoelace to attach the strap to the lower neck. This is what my son and daughter and all of their guitar playing friends and teachers do. Very easy and sturdy.

I do similar, although my fingers are small enough that I put the middle finger under the middle part of the strap. Obviously, there are many ways to do it and all seem to be comfortable for each user.

This was a gift for my grandson, so I'm sorry don't know personally, but I can ask him. From a similar experience with another device, I would think that Edward's answer below would work well - if you don't have copper wire, you could use fishing line, or buttonhole thread to make a loop and thread the loop through to hook around the small thread on the strap.

I believe it is either attached by another snap or velcro on the other, unseen side. At any rate, the strap can be taken completely off, which I have done with mine. I actually don't use this holster much as I usually carry my gun concealed in different, inside-the-pant type of holster.

I use a quality "D" Ring on both sides if able. Like one of these: ARB ARB207D Bow/Clevis D ShackleI do not use ball hitches as attachment points due to their inability to secure the strap. Hooks are a last resort for the same reason. Looping it through itself is also a last resort as this can damage the strap and is a bear to remove once done.

I had the impression that I was supposed to lock the clip after I pull the strap tight. It seems second nature to do so since you hold the ring with one hand an the clip/base area w the other to cinch tight to your body. After that motion, I automatically lock it in place. My D800 plus 24-70 would fall down every time if I didn't lock it.

You will find a small hole in the case through which you can thread the small end of the strap. Having done that thread the large end through the small loop.

It is weird and not well designed. A loop would be better.I cross my straps, like Im tying a shoelace at the start, then attach the straps to each other's velcro. Works decent.

When I attach the strap, I line up the screw on the strap with the hole on the bottom of the camera and start threading it on by using (twisting/turning) the strap. Then once the thread has started I use the pop up "C" shaped crank (?) and then hand tighten by turning that. I never overtighten but always make sure it is snug then lay the "C" shaped crank flush against the camera. I hope this helps!

You open the velcro end and pull it on the leash with the solid elastic side going on the side away from the handle. Then wiggle the top and bottom elastic bands up the leash and secure the velcro in the area on the inner side of the handle. I hope that makes sense. It is a snug fit, but it does fit on my leash very well.

The strap is Velcro into inside of case. Pull out and then from back side top of Garmin, lift lightly on top tab to release catch and slide off. The first few times it is a very tight fit. Hope this helps.

slip the whole thing through the strap. then slide the lanyard through the small loop at the end.

I use a strap with a ratcheting device that tightens it up, it has hooks on each end. You can get them at about any hardware store.

Yes, that strap is a PAIN! I had to use a straight pin to help me pull it under the cross pin, and a good flashlight! That's the best advice I can give.

You use the normal strapping points on your camera. See the little loop things on the upper left of the picture? Those go through the hard points (I can't remember the name of the knot right now, but it's where you shove the loop through the hard point, then tuck the clip through the loop). You could use one or both hard points as you prefer.

insert the straps into the buckle in the opposite way that you are doing it. i know it seems counter-intuitive - i had the exact same problem! so basically, you are inserting the strap through the "back" side of the buckle (the extra strap will come out like a tongue through a dragon's teeth). once you do that, when the buckle clamps, it will hold. these are really super rings, easy on the hands and durable (i have had them outside all summer). but they really should include some visual instructions. hope this helps!
