I don't know of any clips, but IMHO it is well worth the money.

thanks mark,i am trying to figure out if its a good way to salvage bow wood..what i mean is..i have had some yew wood that is thick in heart wood..rather than just chopping it all way..taking a band saw and spitting it with the grain and using the one peice with sap wood for one stave and the other heart only and backing it with bamboo.i hope i made since with this..john

It's been a while since I've watched it. I don't remember him talking about using yew, but I guess the principle would be the same.
