Rubber band planer board release

[Egoody]

Does anyone use rubber bands for planer board releases for browns in the spring?

I see a lot of releases that look just like shower curtain clips and was thinking I could use these with rubber bands? I've used rubber bands on my Downrigger releases before ant they work pretty well.

Any thoughts?

Thanks and

Here's what I use

We use just that exactly, buy cheap shower curtain hoops and the cheap plastic clothes pins . Drill a hole thru one side of clothes pin to hold curtain ring and you have a release also use number 16 rubber bands they work Great if you want a more stout release buy better quality clothes pins.
