My forearm and elbow has been bothering me. I built this strap that carries all the weight of the detector. My arm doesn't bother me when detecting now.
In the full view you can see that the belt clips on my belt on my left side and goes over my right shoulder. The bottom insert shows the strap clipped to my belt. The top insert shows the strap clipped to the detector.
The middle insert shows a D clip I attached to the detector. I didn't want any wear on the paint so I wrapped a strip of nylon around the detector and then attached the ring with pull ties.
The second picture shows the old strap I used. This one came from a small back pack. It's Length is adjustable. In the insert the clip on the left goes on my belt. I can attach it without removing my belt. The clip on the right clips to the detector and was modified so I can unhook it easier.
After I pin point my target, I unhook the detector and lay it down as usual. You can't see it but the strap goes under the phone cord on my shoulder. My arm thanks me. Rob
Picture of modified strap in later post ( 9th I think)
