Default Securing Turnbuckles

On one of Brion's DVD's, he talks about using a "c" made from welding rod as opposed to cotter pins to secure rigging turnbuckles. I'm not sure I understand from the description how to do this. It sounds like a great idea. The beauty of it seems to be that you wouldn't have to tape over the turnbuckles to prevent snagging a sail.

Can someone please help me understand what's required and how to do this? A picture or two would be great.
