What type of strap are you trying to use? Just run the strap through the pipe and around the tube and connect the strap togather

You need to be resourceful. If you keep your eyes peeled you can find webbing or straps pretty easily and cheaply. Old back packs are a great start. WalMart sells connectors really cheap in the camping section. Made by Out Door Products. Then just follow the above instruction.

Don't buy the other holder if you can help it, just use some grey matter (your brain).

Buy the straps at walmart camping section, get a six inch long one inch diameter pvc pipe. Two inches in from each end make a horizontal slot the width of the strap. Thread the strap in the tube and back out. Your done.

A woman goes into Bass Pro Shop to buy a rod and reel for her grandson's birthday.She doesn't know which one to get so she just grabs one and goes over to the counter. A Bass Pro Shop associate is standing there wearing dark shades. She says, ''Excuse me, sir. Can you tell me anything about this rod and reel?'' He says, ''Ma'am, I'm completely blind; but if you'll drop it on the counter, I can tel...l you everything from the sound it makes.'' She doesn't believe him but drops it on the counter anyway. He says, ''That's a six-foot Shakespeare graphite rod with a Zebco 404 reel and 10-LB. test line. It's a good all around combination and it's on sale this week for only $20.00." She says, ''It's amazing that you can tell all that just by the sound of it dropping on the counter. I'll take it!'' As she opens her purse, her credit card drops on the floor.''Oh, that sounds like a Master Card,'' he says. She bends down to pick it up and accidentally farts. At first she is really embarrassed, but then realizes there is no way the blind clerk could tell it was she who tooted. Being blind, he wouldn't know that she was the only person around.The man rings up the sale and says, ''That'll be $34.50 please.''The woman is totally confused by this and asks, ''Didn't you tell me the rod and reel were on sale for $20.00? How did you get $34.50?'' He replies, ''Yes, Ma'am. The rod and reel is $20.00, but the Duck Call is $11.00 and the Bear Repellent is $3.50"

Johnny went into a bar for the first time and he noticed four one foot high statues on the back of the bar with the liquor bottles. One statue had a guy holding his nose with his two fingers, the second statue had a guy pointing with one finger, the third statue had a guy holding his fists up in a boxing pose, and the fourth statue had a guy with his hand touching his forhead covering his eyes and he had his head down. There were no plaqards on the statues. As the night went on and Johnny got really drunk he kept looking at the statues. Johnny went home when the bar closed and was dreaming about those statues.
The next night Johnny went in and started doing shots.
After several shots he called the bartender over and he said hey what do those statues mean? The bartender said #1 was the sense of smell, #2 was the sense of direction, #3 was civil rights, and #4 was the sense of humility.
Johnny was quite drunk now and he said oh, I thought it meant, Who farted? He did! Who did? I did.
