I've been looking for a tool lanyard that is detachable. The closest I've come up with is a piece of tie line. I'd like something a little better, but something I can remove and attach to another tool. Suggestions?

Tie line works for me. It's really cheap, reliable and doesn't get in the way too much.

I use a climbing duty carribeaner, with a smaller one that houses the tools which are all connected to the big one by tie wire. Kinda confusing set up, but it's safe and it works for me.

Ya, everyone arround here uses tieline that is abit stiff, and they just loop it through a loop of itself and attach it / detach it that way... Simple, cheap, reliable.

Around here, it's either tie line or a coiled phone cord. The coiled phone cord works great when you don't want great big loops of tie line hanging around to get caught on the c-clamps when the electric flies out.

We use ones from www.toolsforstagecraft.com. They have snapclips on each end with a coiled plastic lanyard that is retractable. They come in multiple colors and my students love them.

I buy coiled black handset phone cord... which is getting hard to find by the way, in the cordless phone era... A basic biner and the big heat shrink tubing. Slide the tubing on the phone cord. Tie a good tight knot, then slip the heat shrink tubing over it and melt with your favorite heat source. They look like an expensive purchased product.
