@Bagheera, I tried all kinds of slings and swivels. IMO the only sling to have is the Niggeloh. About $90 - $100 but well worth it. There are also hard plastic / Nylon sling swivels that are very similar to the ones you used with a screw fastener available. If you have trouble waterproofing and protecting leather items, there is a product sold by chemists called 'Zinc and Caster oil Ointment' that works very well. It is sold in 500gram tubs for preventing Nappy Rash and is better than any other leather dressing including 'Huberds' etc and is perfectly safe on our skin if it comes through gloves etc.
