    I've done this, and you can create the same setup to mimic a paddle strop with a hanging strop. Place your hanging strop on some books and weigh down the ends with barbell plates. It's a bit less elegant than a proper paddle strop, but it functions the same way.

    Trainee,

    Please have a peek at these stropping videos; I have found them to be most helpful, especially when I get into my stropping doldrums
