Slim Jim door tool

[butch27]

I used a cut down stainless "Slim Jim" to hang my side pipes on the "T". Now I need one for the other side but they tell me they are Illegal to buy. What kind of spring stainless steel about 1-1/2" wide can I use for the other side? It worked great for me. These stupid laws P O me. Can't have any fun. LOL

both of them will have various thicknesses of Stainless steel and a shear to cut it into strips..

these places build stainless walls for cooking areas...   food prep benches of stainless..   sink  counters of stainless..

They sure do, in fact they were hanging right next to the package of springs I bought last weekend.
