Hey, I resemble that accusation!..............
I like to use 1/8" diameter paracord.  I tie it to the CBG and use a taut line hitch to make it adjustable.

Voila, here it is!

Although my wife is amused with the idea - she'll eventually crochet me a guitar strap using so called Tunisian crochet technique (don't ask me) - I found the Oily's idea quite appealing.

Short Google search brought this:

(notice the innovative use of a vise...)

If it is good for middle-age weapons it may as well fit my CBG...

Nothing looks better on a CBG than a piece of 1/4" rope.  Drawer pulls are larger, and easier to tie securely to than a standard strap button.
Piece of rope.

Rafal,

Nice strap! Your wife does good Moroccan crochet.

Oily

Rafal,

 

Arrrggghhh! I meant Tunisian, not Moroccan.

 

 

North African ;-)

World weave?;-)
definitely Terran.

I was in the local craft store recently and saw Tandy leather guitar strap kits. although they were beginner/kids kits aimed at guitar hero style applications I looked on their website and it revealed some additional interesting ideas.
