Step 10 Affix and Enjoy

Drill or poke your holes. I suggest using a knife to cut a small X in the webbing where you want the holes rather than drilling through the straps which won't work. Then simply attach the straps with your nuts and bolts. Do this for all four strap ends and you are ready to enjoy your bag.

I've found that when working with webbing straps like the ones for your handles, using an icepick or fork prong to 'poke' through the webbing works best. Once through, gyrate the icepick in circles to widen the opening and voila! Holes in webbing without cutting. And without cutting, the webbing won't weaken or tear over time.
