[cool][#0000ff][size 1]Hey Hustle Man, I remembered how I used to carry a bedroll and "necessities" for short pack-in trips when I was a kid. I don't remember who showed me how to do it, but it worked.[/size][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][size 1]The basics are to just do a big loose strap and then shove your arms down through the loop and bring the ends up over your shoulder...like I show in the crude hand-drawn illustration.[/size][/#0000ff]

[#0000ff][size 1]For hauling a tube, you would need anywhere from five to six feet of strap, with clips or hooks on the ends to attach to D rings on the tube. You could pre hook them or hook them up after getting the strap mostly in place. If you had an assistant along, it would make it easier, but it isn't tough if you work on it.[/size][/#0000ff]
[#0000ff][size 1]Nylon straping material is cheap and you can make an adjustable connector on one end, to allow easy changes if you need them. You can roll it up and stow it in a pocket when not in use, and it is a lot lighter than a bunch of PVC.[/size][/#0000ff]
