How Do I Make a Push/Pull Clasp?

Help! What kind of wire sheet do I use to make a push pull clasp? The kind where you pinch one piece, push into the other, then let go and it springs back up and holds securely?


Thanks,

Are you referring to a box clasp? you can keyword search to see pictures. The outside can be any number of different embellishments, but the inside mechanism remains basically the same.

Tim McCreight's Complete Metalsmith: Professional Edition
has instructions. Also keyword search for box clasp tutorial.

The members of the list http://www.starvingjewelryartists.com/index.php?act=idx are waiting for another member to repost what looks like any excellent tutorial. After looking at the pictures, I can't wait to see it myself. Hope this helps you out.
