Looking to get some case latches
 

I don't know the exact right word for these latches, see photo, but they are the plastic or metal latches that hold the machine down in the cases. Or better yet they keep the case bottoms from falling away when you pick up the machine.
I've got several cases with broken latches and one missing.
So I was wondering if those of you who have had to junk out cases might have saved the latches and would be willing to sell me some? I'd like to get about a half dozen.

Either that or maybe somebody knows of a source for them. I've not seen them for sale, and my local SMG is clueless.

try using the thing that holds a mirror on the wall

I had one of those handy for some reason and tried it. Works to a certain extent but not as good as the originals.

Next trip to the hardware store I'll check and see if there are different shapes of those things.

I'd still like some originals though.

We had some of those mirror things looked like stars - I doubt if it would work but it would look cool.

The ones I have are just the little clear plastic ones with a maybe 3/8" projection. Just almost enough, but not enough to properly hold the machine.

You can make your owan with little square pieces of wood trim...can't think of what it is called. They use them on the folding bed trays, etc. Also think about little metal pieces.

you can find the screen latches like this at Lowe's. But also check ebay!
