Thanks for the link to that thread. Your leg hook concept somewhat follows the mechanics of the seat strap I use for bassoon.

The "neckstrap" thread was a treat. I'm sorry I didn't pick up on it sooner. Somebody commented - rightly so - that a neck strap complicated instrument changes when doubling. I was doubling 1st oboe, and, thankfully, there was enough time between the important bits to hook and unhook.

(I did manage to miss one oboe entrance... but because I scrambled pages during the pre-concert walk through. Shame, shame. Fortunately it was tutti with the clarinets and nobody knew other than myself and the conductor.)
