Abstract: A tool for installing a spring clip for clipping together extensions for sheet metal. An angled handle terminates in an extended underlip at an operating end. A jaw having a flat bottom face and a hooked end is pivotally affixed, offset from the underlip. The underlip is curved to form a pushing face, opposed to the hook on the jaw.The tool is used to install a spring clip on sheet metal extensions, placing one end of the spring clip across a sheet metal extension and hooking the sheet metal extension and clip together with a jaw hook. By pivoting down the handle, the underlip presses against the opposing sheet metal extension forcing the extensions together and forcing the jaw face down over the spring clamp clipping the clamp over the sheet metal extensions, installing the clip.
