x-acto helping hands
Posted by Wilbur Wright on Thursday, October 19, 2006 1:39 PM
I have a couple of these that I  use every day and the alligator clips have broken. Does anyone know if they sell replacement clips that fit into the slot????  Or can I just get any old kind of alligator clip to work in this x-acto product???? at the hardware story??

Don't see the need to buy whole new ones if I can fix these.


Thanks

I'm thinking that Radio Shack might sell alligator clips that could be adjusted to fit.
You might want to give it a look.

Walmart sells some, but they are kinda crappy, get them at the hardware store or radio shack. I think they are a pretty standard size clip.
