You're welcome. Patent pending. You better mail me a royalty
check now that you've seen it.
I found it worked a lot better if I put the head on it's side;
the keepers generally just fell out.
(I made it from 3/16" steel scrap, and the big hole weakened
it, it wanted to bend there. Stiffer, or U channel, or hammered
into a slight U, all would work. YOu get the idea.)
