The Nova FB uses a sort of frame to hold the paper rather than using the clips, and the whole thing is inclined at about 30 degrees. Personally I find the standard upright Quad perfectly fine for 12x16, using only one clip, but I may be more than usually dextrous!
An interesting use for Coke, I wouldn't drink it either but it does clean rusty nails remarkably well! I've generally used caustic soda for cleaning my Nova, but actually somebody at Nova once told me there's really no need to clean it apart for cosmetic reasons. They sell something called "Tar Buster" for cleaning purposes though.
