   Hey thanks for the reply Dinosaur but No they aren't , This clip is like a 10 " piece of pipe that about 2/3 was taken out of it length wise so that it snaps right over the pipestaging and sandwiches the tarp in beween it . Masons use them in the winter to enclose their staging. Thanks again I've seen it a hundred times but can't seem to find them.

   Haven't seen those. Good idea.You could make them yourself. I made snap-on stops like what you describe for the slide bars of my SCMS, to limit the slide for a bunch of custom notch cuts.Take a piece of PVC pipe, not too long (3-4'), and run it through the tablesaw a couple of times to cut out a slot. Hold the pipe firmly in your fist like a pool cue, avoid twisting it, and stop the cuts when your hand reaches the front edge of the table.DO NOT TRY TO CUT THE FULL LENGTH OF THE PIPE!!Crosscut the slotted portion into whatever lengths you want. Round over the ends of the notches, and sand the clamps well.If you've got pipe scraps around, you're done in less time than it takes to drive to HD.AitchKay

   I believe these are what you're looking for.........(I'm a mason)Made by Bontool as the sticker says...........any "real" mason supply place should have them, especially since winter is'a coming.

   Yeah, those pics show what I'm talking about.Takes about a minute to make 4 or 5 of them, another couple of minutes to knock down all the sharp edges with coarse sandpaper.AitchKay
