ABSTRACT:
A nail clipping retainer which prevents the scattering of fingernail and toenails from the cutting area of conventional nail clippers. The device retains nail fragments only as each fragment is being cut. The device mounts on the post between the upper and lower cutting members and fills the void between the cutting members when the members are fully depressed during a cutting process. Alternate methods of attachment and simplicity of manufacture allow for easy installation in new and previously produced nail clippers of various shapes and sizes. An optional clipping container may be used to store clipping after being retained by the retaining member described above. The clipping container detachably fastens to the post at the exterior side of the lower cutting member with a thin linear member equal in shape to the lower cutting member. A tube-like chamber which detachably mounts over the pivoting thin linear member is removed from a non-use position and is repositioned to receive nail clippings as the clippings leave the confines of the retaining member.
