Step 3The Strap
For true rock star effect you should wear your instrument. The C=BOARD is no exception.
I decided to use a standard guitar strap because I had one handy, but other straps could work too. While there are better ways to have done this step there are few easier ways. Feel free to try your own idea, this is just what I did.
I drilled holes in the case, about 1/4 inch I think. I put them in the lower case, about and inch or so from the front. There's room for hardware in that spot and the plastic is fairly thick there. The nut, bolt, washers and strap combination provides some support for the case and a really sturdy connection.
Here's the order of things going on the bolt shaft:
washer, strap, washer2, goes through case into: washer, nut
Think of the washers as the bread in this industrial sandwich.
