Question roof racks

I'm making a roof rack at work out of stainless, but don't want to use those plastic pool cue holders for the front rack. Anybody know where I can get my hands on a set of the metal clip type?
thanx
chris

Is it good, or is it Sofa King good?

Any hardware store would have them. I was able to find some Stanless one time!! I have had them for about 10 years now.
They use them for hanging brooms and stuff.
Another trick a friend showed me is to put some heat shrink tube on them, It melts right to it and won't strach the rods! Even metal ones will last for about 5 years, with a little WD40 from time to time.
Good luck

Goose: was that a catch and release?

They have everything in the world.
I use them at work all the time for stock, tools, elctronics etc...

Try searching "spring clips", I just saw some on page 2814.

Good Luck..


Nice deer goose !!!

Things done at the last possible minute are done with the greatest possible information. Procrastination is, therefore, the most efficient means of doing things.
