Re: HH Clip alternative

DSix36,

You are too kind! Immitation is the ultimate form of flattery... ;-)

All it took was removing the swivel bit on the clip and using TIG welding rod stock with a couple of tacks. Think it might have been 1/8 or 3/32 rod. Used 312ss to mate with the clip material. The channel used for the swivel bit provides just the right clearance for the zip tie to fit snuggly.

Enjoy the benefits, another one that occurs to me is that the HHs no longer find themselves dragging all over creation or getting pinched between the 'breather and hard places. That was really aggravating.

Now the rest in one of the most protected spots on the machine.

No regrets! It is slick, hope you like it!
