It just needs to fit into the rail snugly, and you can bend it a bit if it's too small to get the right size.
Thanks for this. My jumper cable was not working reliably, but I gave this a try, and it works every time.
you might want to file down some of the sharp edges around where you clipped the paperclip.
This part only hits the bottom of the rail, so it can't do any harm.
It actually can be quite difficult to file them without destroying the bend
i was thinking more about scratches to the rail while inserting and sliding down than actually destroying anything. that said, its probably better to file before you bend or before you find the perfect shape, yes.
but if you just carefully file the tips individually with a nail file, they shouldn't really bend out of shape.
Next up on the WTS Forum "[WTS] Paperclip RCM JIGs, fully tested and shipped for only $14.99"
If the Switch looks like it doesn't come on when you hold Volume+ and the power button, then you probably entered RCM.
I that case I must be doing something wrong, because I'm getting the recovery menu instead.
OP, will you please do a tiny bending services thread?
Seriously, if you could go a little more in-depth, like the specific brand of paper clip, that would 100% me.

I think you're pressing "+ and -" instead of "+".

... Goddammit, it's the plus button rather than the minus isn't it. In my defence I actually read that it was minus at some point. Still both jigs and the paperclip method work beautifully now. I'm still not sure how I got into the other menu but, quite frankly, at this point I don't care, something finally works as it should.
