Paper Clip

A single bent wire holds loose pages together without cutting, gluing or permanently changing the material it organizes.

This is a placeholder article for later editing. The current structure matches the zipper page: a sticky visual stage on the left and scroll-based reading on the right.

02 Mechanism

It grips through shape, spring and friction.

The paper clip does not need glue, heat or a lock. Its usefulness comes from a small amount of pressure held in a simple loop.

02 Notes

Almost invisible until it is missing.

Use this section later for history, material notes, references and final image credits.
