What I used were small leather strips with a buckle that came with a kit to add a dropped noseband to a dressage bridle. I never used thhe noseband but these came in gandy for this purpose. I think you would need something sturdier than a string. What I was going to use before I found these pieces were spur straps and cut them off. I bought a box of miscellaneous leather pieces at a sale for $2.00 and it was a great buy - I have used more of that stuff for making things than I can begin to tell you. It had stuff in it like the dropped noseband kits, a bunch of spur straps (what you thread through the spur to hold it on), rawhide pieces, broken reins, etc. Don't ever throw away misc. pieces of leather - you never know when they might come in handy for rigging up something else. -- Laree What a horse does under compulsion is done without understanding, and there is no beauty in it either, any more than if one should whip or spur a dancer. -Xenophon
