    I would like to make my own box catches out of silver so that they
    better integrate into my pieces than some of the ones available on
    the limited market. Can anyone refer me to a good text for
    constructing a box catch? Does anyone know anybody who specializes
    in teaching findings and mechan isms? I have intermediate
    metalsmithing skills. These catches will be att ached to flat pieces
    of knitted fine silver so they will either have to b e wired on to
    the catch, riveted or glued. Any info will be appreciated 

Thanks,
Genevieve
