Bent the loop around a rod, I presume?

Looks very nice. This could be a popular item if you want to sell some. Low shipping cost!

Not to be an Iconoclast but would a u-bend work as well as a loop?  How about using a spring and stretch/bend it?  ACE hardware????  :rolleyes:

A "U" shaped clip would work fine, it just wouldn't look anything like the original. I used spring steel wire to make the one shown above. No need to buy a spring to modify - that would just make the job more complicated.
