41-280 Coil Assembly Clips
#1

I was missing one of those clips that hold the coils down and figured I'd try and make something.

Then one of those springy paper clips came to mind.

Its a bit thicker but maybe it will just work.

Cut it down a bit, spread it out a tad and filed the the tips to take off any sharp points

Installed and holding rather well (middle coil in pic). There may be a better smaller paper clip available but this is working.
