I have a Delta 1 1/2 HP dust collector with a Thien separator. Changing the dust collection bag is a pain. I recall other set-up options but can't find them. What do you have for suggestions to replace the bag or simplify this?

Please post pictures.
I use magnets to hold the bag then put the ring on
It is usually a pretty messy job for me. My collector has clips around the perimeter which hold the bag in place while strapping. Magnets, as Jerome suggested, would work and I assume pretty good sized ones would be needed to keep the replacement bag in place and not get knocked off by the band and movement of the bag with adjustments.
Rustic? Well, no. That was not my intention!
Is there a set-up to replace the bag? I seem to recall seeing like someone install a clear tube to a receptacle below.
I use blue tape to hold the bag in place and put the strapping over the tape.
I believe the OP is not asking for an easier way to change the bag but an alternative to the bag altogether. A quick search turned up this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ArT2ijAnus
