ABSTRACT:
An L-shaped clip of sheet metal is provided with a pair of resilient fingers having their connected ends offset from the plane of the clip leg that they are integral with, the fingers then curving upwardly at a decreasing radius with two points or teeth at the upper end of each finger, the four points (two on each finger) all being at different elevations. When cutting out a section of a panel to form an opening, such as in a counter top to accommodate a kitchen sink, an appropriate number (usually four) of clips are inserted into the saw kerf so that the resilient fingers prevent the cutout panel portion from falling, the various points or teeth frictionally pressing against the otherwise detached panel portion to releasably retain the panel portion in place.
