G'day all

It seems to me that every day I'm off walking around with one of the cameras slung over my shoulder, that I am constantly pulling the damn thing back onto my shoulder - as it tries to slide off and go its own way

Over the years, I have tried a number of options to stop the "slip slidin' away" with varying degrees of success, but now I seem to have found one that works... using domestic non-slip material glued to the inner face of the camera strap

Stuff needed
a) a strip of non-slip material, about 2cm wide x (from 30cm up to) the length of your camera strap
b) a soft drink bottle (to wrap the strap around)
c) a tube of contact adhesive

Here goes...
1- the inner face of the basic camera strap - woven webbing material


2- wrap the non-slip material around a soft-drink bottle. (Stickytape ends onto bottle to stop it unwinding)


3- use some contact-adhesive


4- wrap the camera strap around the now-glued non-slip material** ps: leave for 24hours to dry completely


5- the completed camera strap with the non-slip material in place


** by wrapping the strap around a bottle, it helps stop the crinkling one gets after gluing two things lying flat, when they are later used with a bend in them

Hope this helps other Apers
