    Default Need the right name for a gizmo.

    Hi All,

    I need a bit of help for the correct name of a piece of storage equipment.

    Its basically a U shaped flat spring that you push on a tool like a tommy bar into on your storage board and it sits there until you pull it off to use. If anyone knows what I'm talking about please let me know, I spent half an hour a Bunnings looking for them and about the same time on Ebay with no luck.

    Thanks Ben.

    Ben Are these the clips you are looking for.

    They all seem to be listed as "Steel Spring Clip" only.

    They are called "Terry Clips". Do a google image search and you will soon see if that is what you are looking for!

    PS They use to be called Terry clips because that was the name of the english company that made them!

    Default Tool Clips

    They can also be called "tool clips" any DECENT hardware store would have them (not the green shed, they never have what I'm looking for) even my local Mitre 10 store has them.
