That's what I was planning to use if I couldn't get the lead frames.

But those require drilling holes.  I don't have anything against that,
and it is definitely stronger, but I like the look of the lead frames.
All the Stamps and Stamp clones use lead frames, and it just makes for a
little bit of a cleaner look, in my opinion.
