small control panel latches?
« on: April 15, 2016, 03:37:42 pm »
Im building a small arcade type project, and wanted to know if theres such thing as small control panel clamps/latches? most sites dont give dimensions of the clamps but i generally assume how big they are for big control panels.. do these type of clamps exist in real small form for projects and such? or is there a particular type of clamp name that i can find in home depot?

I'm a big fan of magnets.  I use the rare earth magnets from dead hard drives.
