Originally I designed a rip-off peak designs system, but then realized that I could ditch the plastic disc and just use a plain ol' knot. Simple is better, yeah?
The printed part has bumps on the inside for additional friction. I tested it by making a wooden block shaped like a camera, attaching my strap, and swinging it around like a mad man. Never broke or came off - good enough for me.
I'm using 2mm Dyneema-ish rope. I've used the same stuff for hammocks so this shouldn't be the weak link. Scale the model based on your rope diameter - hopefully it maths out about right.

Use whatever material you trust your camera's life with. I used PETG.
Instructions:
- Print 2x clips
- get a camera strap with a 10mm or smaller width nylon strap
- Make 2 anchors by cutting your rope to ~ shoulder width lengths
- Make a loop and tie a figure eight knot into it
- Test the fit in the clip and adjust as needed
