Damon,

I just ordered another 100 of the 1/8" wire rope clips today for the EarthTainer III cages. I'm sure I will have extras, so let me know how many you will need.

Also, If you join the cage at the vertical "seam", I think you could get away with one clip 6" up from the bottom, one clip in the center, and one clip 6" down from the top.

Raybo

p.s. Further thinking this method of attachment through, you could make half-height (or full) cage extensions, and if you've been careful in matching finished diameters, you could use perhaps 4 of these Wire Rope Clips to attach the bottom extension rim to the top rim of the base cage, each placed 90 degrees apart.
