This is what I do, except I use a big, high rated split ring, about the size of the welded ring... Squidco has them. If not, and you hook up into something nice, the small split ring will buckle... Ask the King of La Jolla about that.

I initially tried to get big split rings around the jig, (not using the existing welded ring) but it is too wide, and stretches them out too much.
