The opening angle of the clip is smaller than the tube and the clip is stiff
to open. Because I did not want to put too much force on the tube, which is
attached to the MS, I tried to increase the opening by bending the clip. I
was able to put the clip onto the tube w/o much force but the clip does not
attach firmly - it won’t move by itself but also it is easy to move onto the
tube. I think there is a possibility to improve on bending the clip with more
trials.

I guess you can assess it yourself when you visit UIC that we have planned
for Sept 10.
