I made my own out of a $12 plastic cutting board using a jigsaw. I have a lifetime supply of replacements with the remainder of the cutting board.

I did this too. Printed one from thingyverse but it broke so I traced it into smallest white plastic cutting board and cut it out.

One thing to be aware of with the printed and home made options is the width of the hook and the size of the belt opening.
I've used a printed one where the belt space was way too wide and long and the whole hook twisted into awkward positions as a result.
The better hooks are wider than a cutting board AND have a small and tight opening for the belt. This means you can still move it out of the way easily but it's stays in place during use and doesn't ride up or twist awkwardly.

Thanks - printed one and it works really well, I like the fact that it does not stick out alot but is still easy enough to hook into.

Its really not worth messing around. Ive done the cutting board thing and it worked but Michael Shepherds are brilliant and fit most waist harness belts that i know of. Well worth it, fully recommend
