Have a laser cutter and want to be able to clip MDF/Acrylic sheets together? Stephen found this system:

I cut out a sample on a 3mm MDF today:
It feels secure and was a tight fit - which is good. I don't know how often you could repeatably remove and re-clip it though. At least the clips would be easy to cut out again if one broke.

Re: Universal Snap Fit Clip System
Nice one, I think they are designed as a single fit and not meant to be removed once clipped together, more for assembling something

Re: Universal Snap Fit Clip System
Yes looks very permanent. Once you design it into a box it might be a little hard/impossible to remove.
Re: Universal Snap Fit Clip System
Perhaps true, but at least with the 3mm MDF, they can be broken up and removed without damaging the two pieces that they are joining together. It's a nifty design to be sure though.
