The redesigned flash-clip with new reinforced brass Katie clips is ready to go. The heavier brass was much harder to work with; to get adjusted right (I've futzed around with it most of today), but finally in the end its going to be around for some extended flashing.

Again, I didn't see any sign of metal fatigue in this setup, but I decided to reinforce the tip of each Katie clip with a small blob of solder. This clip really 'snaps' into place and is royally solid. I'm totally regretting that I futzed around with the aluminum in the first place! :-}
