You can probably buy special clips to hold the bones, but me being a cheapskate made one from the spring clip of a tape measure cassette which I fix by drilling a
hole through the middle of the bone and bolting to the clip with a large washer on the bone side.
Bolts, nuts and washers are stainless steel.
