Abstract

A novel method is disclosed to create elongated apertures from circular holes provide a snap fit of square or rectangular tabs or tangs without requiring special tooling or milling. According to the method of the invention, at the intersection of the circular holes, points of engagement are formed that hold the square or rectangular tab in place. The size and spacing of the intersecting circular holes determine the depth of the points of engagement and the size of the square or rectangular tab that can be held.
