Is it GAS? Bronica in the collection... ah... ah... not my fault this time...

***had to change title because I was getting hit from people looking for something else***
This time I was just looking for a camera for a friend who needed one...yeah... she wanted to get into medium format and I offered to help find a suitable camera.   Prowling through the bay I spotted and handsome looking Bronica EC with a few extras.  The price looked good as I noticed others like it were selling at a hefty amount.  I dropped in my low bid and surprise, I won.  The seller was very nice and threw in almost two dozen rolls of film.  So I told my friend the good news and stashed the gear until she could purchase it from me...and then I heard the voices... "I need to go out for a trip... take me to a picture outing... let's put some film inside me and grab a few test shots..."  That's it, test shots, I gotta make sure the camera is working properly.  First roll was finished and processed that night.  Looked superb!  However, missing in the deal was the camera strap.  Well, might there be a way to grasp the camera and keep a near death grip without the strap for security?




A small and simple contraption to help lock the camera between the fingers.  Still able to cradle and easy enough to move around.  Now to test that out... you know just to make sure it works.
