Yes, I flattened a 1/2 inch copper pipe with a hammer and drilled it with a regular bit (copper is pretty soft).

HA! I figured out last night why my "copper" clips were such a hassle to make... when a magnet grabbed one (DOH!) Yeah, I never remembered copper being so uncooperative before...
Really, I just think those clips are the best thing ever. They would solve so many problems I run into.

I'm considering other schemes... like maybe magnets. Or those snap-in things that hold mud flaps on. All seem to come with hassles, but I'm hopeful.
Speaking of magnets, I highly recommend experimenting with neodymiums as an absurdly easy way to attach pizza pan wheel covers. I tried it, and it would totally work if the pans fit better on my rims. (I'm like a millimeter off) That would be a $5-and-5-second racing wheel install, if you're lucky.
