ABSTRACT:
The specification discloses a kit for making a universal clip. The kit includes a base having a horizontal top surface and a vertical side surface. Mounting apertures are disposed in the base for receiving fasteners to mount the base on support structure. A metallic cylinder and a pin extend upwardly from the top surface of the base spaced apart at a predetermined distance. The base also includes two horizontal bores of different bore depths and an oblique bore extending through the top and side surfaces for use in forming a tip on the universal clip. The universal clip is formed from a metallic wire that is wrapped around the cylinder to form a spring loop and forced against the pin to crook the wire to form two arms. A tip is formed on the end of each arm by bending the ends of the wire using the two horizontal bores in the base. The completed universal clip includes a loop spring portion, two arms, a tip portion, and a bushing encompassing the two arms and movable between a locked closed position and an open position.
