Ask the guy who runs the ferret box company for one of his straps, not sure how much it will cost through.

 

Drill a hole in the both ends of your box the same size as your bolts. I would put the hole in the centre of the box horizontally, and about 1 inch above centre vertically.

This should help keep the box stable and stop it from wanting to spin (hope that makes sence)

 

Make a hole about 2 inches from the end of the strap.

 

Melt the edges of the hole using a lighter, or maybe heat up a bolt and push it through (grip with pliers, don't want any burns do we), to seal the strands to stop them fraying.

 

Attach it to your box in the following order:

 

Bolt - large washer (3-4cm diameter)- through the belt- through the hole in the box - large washer - nut

Another suggestion.

 

The strap on my box originates from a gymbag. My mate which made my box took the plastic ends of the strap and the he put the metal holder through the gap. Then he screwed it onto the box.

 

For pics, take a look at this topic. I just posted some pics there so yo can see it:
