Hi David,

    In my early days at the bench, I do remember seeing clip-on earring
    findings that had a screw-back style top, so that the earring tension
    could be adjusted by the user. The screw was placed where the open
    loop is on the omega back. I haven't seen anything like that in many
    years, so can't offer any resources. Maybe you can laser a
    frankenstein version together! 

Best of luck,
