Nice idea Ed, plue I like al the others too. I currently use the small screw type but am not fond of the oval opening they have, like the nice round circle opening of the hooks, again, thanks Ed.

I have even used a fishermans knot in filament, drilled a tiny hole with a welders tip drill set and used that....actually a good look because you hardly notice the line...!

That's a great idea Ed , thanks for sharing it. I like your idea too Hi Ho, of the fishing filament. Combined, they solve a problem for me.
