...I'm a lookin'...

     :)! Lookin' for a supplier of the oval shaped line connectors, not the ones shaped like the old coke bottles.  Just look like an oval.
  Bought some from Lone Star before they went under, so if ya'll can help I'd appreciate it...

Hey Gil,
Did you try Mike's hobby shop north of town?

I think what you want is the oblong clips available from Brodak. I've bought a lot, but I am always disgusted by the high price. These are great clips!  You can also make your own, of any reasonable length, to fine-tune your handle settings, by buying the Derek Moran clip making kit from Jim Lee...see the vendor's section. Get some of the stainless steel wire from Jim, too.  y1 Steve
