Hi All
I am trying to find a particular type or catch/latch but am having trouble finding what I want.
The type I want is like you often find on tool boxes and those metal suitcases for carrying photography equipment etc around.
You open them up and a ring/loop on one side of the lip (for example) hooks over a hook on the other side of the lid, then when you close the catch it pulls the loop nice and tight and the case/toolbox etc is held nice and tightly closed. (Why is it so hard to explain things like this?)
Does anyone know anywhere I might get some from, or even just what this type of catch/latch is called so I might have more luck searching for them.
Any help very much appreciated.
