I am at the end of my supply of several thousand mandolin metal clips.
They were originally sold as paper clips.  I can find no office supply
source for them or for that matter even knows what they are let alone
where to find them.  I have taken the original box complete with
picture to show them.  I can find no indication that the company is
still in business that made them.

Does anyone know where I can buy a few thousand of these clips?  They
should last me a few years.  I know I can buy the new mandolin kits but
I have original rails that need only the clips all the time.  It seems
odd to pay for a whole kit just to rob the clips out of it.  I have
also made wooden mandolin tips in the past.  Does anyone know where to
get those made?
