I was recently asked about my homemade ostomy belt, (see pictures on my Profile). I wonder if it might be of use by others. The belt I bought at "Princess Auto" a man's store, INdusttrial and general tools, the belt made by "ALTUS" is 4" wide with rope inside the webbing top and bottom. I cut a hole in the webbing leaving the rope. Because the webbing is somewhat rough I covered it with t-shirt material and medical tape. At first I had added a ring made from a coat hanger around the opening. I have considered other options and already have bought some velcro type material stretchy fabric and hooks and eyelets. The current belt uses velcro you pull one end through the metal clasp and then close it with velcro, Let me know if you need more. Take Care Ed
