We're excited to offer an update on the nylon strap assembly. We're moving ahead with this awesome upgrade to the CamCuff and the design has been through a few cycles this week.
To ensure the overall strength of the strap assembly, we've incorporated a braided 10-strand rope as the cord loop. At about 1/8-inch diameter, this rope has super-strength (hundreds of lbs in tensile strength), and remains thin enough to attach securely to most point-and-shoot cameras as well as DSLR rigs.
We've also moved from the solid injected plastic form we posted in earlier updates to a snap assembly that will be moulded in two separate parts. This will improve quality control during manufacture.
Here is a rendering of the new nylon strap assembly's exterior. We'll post photos and video of the stress tests once the prototype arrives.
Rock on!
