[NJARC] Fahnstock clips

[Robert Lozier]

If they are current manufacture from China, then they are actually 
chrome plated spring steel.

Even if they were nickel plated brass, electro stripping nickel parts 
with lots of sharp edges of a stamped, thin gauge  part would get eaten 
enough to look ugly requiring tumbling in abrasives.... Not going to go 
there....

Yours,

Robert
