It appears that the wrist strap is not "attached" to the pole. Could I drill a hole through it without ruining the pole to add a better strap?

Probably so if the pole fits snuggly into the hole and does not end up to low near the surface of the water. We used the holes for our protective fencing around the outside of the pool edge last year. This year we drilled a hole and used the metal fitting that came with the pole about three feet from the waters edge and it works beautifully. I use my tether daily and am really happy with it. Just make sure you have enough space from the umbrella footing to the end of the pool otherwise you will hit the wall with your fingers. That is why we ended up drilling our new hole three foot back from the edge of the pool.

It won't be easy, but I'm sure you could fabricate a strap of some sorts. if you were looking to just screw in a go, don't think so.

yes, there is a string type of wrist strap that you put on it that comes with it. It is not the kind of wrist strap that is the same as the material though.

Gently with a flat screwdriver you will be able to open it. It took me a few minutes to do so, but was never able to attach the strap to it. Good luck!

Put the end with the flat tip (and groves on the side) through the slot on the one side. When you get to the other side slip it through the other side sideways. The groves hold the strap in place. :)

Cut the strap shorter and resew it back on. Anybody with a sewing machine could do it in seconds or if you have a needle and thread it would take a few minutes if the sewing machine isn't available.

The strap can go through the teeth in 2 different directions. One of them keeps it tighter than the other. Try threading it in the other direction.

If I'm remembering correctly, you can adjust the strap size as my granddaughter used it on her upper arm while snorkeling and I used it on my wrist. I hope this helps.

My husband does not use the strap. He did confirm that there is only one place to attach. You could possibly call Chapin and get an answer. Sorry we could not be more help.

Apparently, you have to drill holes to attach the strap yourself. I didn't understand this when I first purchased the strap, but I was able to rig it up without damaging either of my instruments.

You can go to the Joby website and they have a great, easy to follow video on how to adjust and position the strap. I don't think your doing anything wrong. I have watched it several times just to make sure myself.

There is a hole for the pole. There is a split at the smallest area so it wraps around the pole nicely.

you could use your old strap. not the most secure but would work in a pinch

How I did mine probably won't help you. The bag's original strap snapped into the bottom connection. The part that broke was the strap piece. The bottom piece was still intact and I could thread the new strap into that.

There's a strap peg on the bottom of the body. I just ran a shoelace above the nut and used that to tie on the top of the strap. Works fine.

The strap is fed through 2 slots cut out of the back of the safe. You are able to remove the strap from its current position, but there are no other cut outs in the back of the safe to slide the strap through... You could either make new cuts where you want the straps to go through, or maybe attach the strap inside the safe somehow, with superglue or whatnot. Hope this helps!
