Thread: Hanging a hanging strop?

I coiled up some #16 speaker wire, attached that to a handle on my Elliptical Trainer and then clipped the strop onto that. That's a pretty expensive solution to your problem, though, because you have to buy the stereo speakers, the speaker wire, an Ellitical Trainer heavy enough to manage the weight of the strop and its usage and you need plenty of room to store all that stuff, maybe downstairs. While you're at it, you might as well get a decent stereo system because you went and bought the speakers and the speaker wire. Make sure you get one with multiple CD capability and a good remote. You might also consider a home theater system, although they are much more expensive. After all, you're only hanging a strop, right?

Awesome Ace.

I've seen a lot of guys hanging their strops as Lynn suggested. Unfortunately I have a pedestal sink and no counter whatsoever. I use a piece of leather lacing to tie my strop to the side of my towel rack. I'm a tall guy (6'4") so a higher mounting point works better for me anyway; and the leather lacing is much more appealing to the eye than a carabiner or the speaker wire/elliptical setup. May not matter to you...but it matters to SWMBO.

What I did at my old place was just have a loop of strong cord tied off around the towel rack, and clipped to that at my leisure.

Currently I have the strop clipped to a split ring, which has a loop of cord and a carabiner on the end of it. This way it's more versatile - I can clip it to things with the carabiner while travelling, or for larger things, I run the loop of cord around an object, and clip the carabiner to that. The loop can also be used to hang from door knobs on its own.
