First, determine the size of the piping insulation you will need to accomplish this;
With my older lifting ring, it was appropriate to use 4 of what is made for 1/2-inch piping;
In my case, the length was perhaps 6 feet and I cut them all (4) in half for my 8 straps.
Larger fruits and longer straps can use larger insulation (such as 3/4-inch) but
it is possible that even a Weighoff's setup might only need 8 3-foot pieces;
Season to taste. You do NOT want the kind that is slitted all the way through
unless that is all there is available(!). A 6-foot+ piece of bamboo stake is used to 'fid' the
strap into the insulation. This is gonna be SO worth it!
