First: Purchase one... Jürgen
from Germany has been known to carry the offical
Omega ones for $65 [but I think that's before
shipping]. Otto
Frei [I know it's a no-no to link commerical
sites, but TZ has had hard-wired direct links or the
ofrei.com site in the past so I'm doin' it!] also
carries them at $45 US (before shipping I'm sure).
Depending upon where you live, one seller might be
more attractive than the other...
Secondly: Many firms sell velcro straps for
securing cables. Micro Center Westmont carried these for
a long time:
Seek these out from a local store or the
manufacturer... Get the 12"er's because the 8"er's are
too short for all but a kid's wrist!
These have a black nylon [instead of Stainless
Steel] loop/ring and are very basic/cheap and well...
while not exactly NASA spec, but you can't beat the
price! I forget how many came in a package. I think a
dozen, but even if it's a half dozen it's just over a $1
a piece even with adding in sales tax!
Third: Roll your own via the NASA
Blueprints as posted on my Blog courtesy of Bob Lacy
[click on the link to gain access
to full sized scans of the original NASA
blueprints...]
Lastly: Follow the DIY
instructions hosted by myself and created/made available
by Curtis... Or view the .jpgs I've created Page

Hopefully, you have paths worth exploring. I'll try to
archive this post as a linkable document on my site as
soon as I can for future reference...

mentioned that: Jayson (y2keable)
[who's also out of England] sells them once in
awhile. Maybe PM
him and see if he knows. [nt]
Those are the possibilities I am aware of at this
time...
