I like to take 4 inch strap then glue nylon cadora on top then sew 2 collars to the edges.  Work durn well.

i make them out of 2 nylon 4 inch towing straps and then two dayglo collars riveted on. and if you hunted them alot you will have to get a lighter and run it agcross the strap . i came across the thought of dipping the cut collars in hot wax so when it dried the wax would cause the tusk to kind of slide off ( the tusk cant find something to grab ahold of so it cant poke through) i have alot of free time so ive done plenty of experiments lol. also fire hose works good. i was selling them but the shipping part was difficult.

What do y'all think about baler belt? I've made a few collars and it seems to work really good just a single strip with rivoted collars or leather straps to it.

I'm poor but have made collars out of all kinds of
stuff "everything mentioned"  fire hose works best
I think it has rubber backing and pretty stout when you
Put 2 pieces together put rubber backing against each other
With 2 nylon orange collars riveted on.  Cost about 12$ a piece to make
Unless. You allready have the collars to rivet on
