Where can I get the 'C' clips for the Mihec mold pins?

I am sure Miha would mail you some if you asked.

Alternately, you could measure the pin and these C clips will likely be metric standard so you could look them up on the internet at a supplier. For example, if the pin is 2.5mm the C clip is likely going to be standard for 2.5mm diameter pin.

If you have lost C clips, I find that using a small magnet while changing pins keeps C clips from disappearing. I put a large round magnet of about 3/4" diameter onto the side of the mould then pop off the C clips which jump directly to the magnet which hangs onto them. When I install the new pins I just use small needle nose pliers to pull C clips off the magnet and relocate into grooves then snap in place.
