...one broke while trying to get the switch to work... anyone got an ingenious method to replace that little spring angled piece of metal contact in the switch? Thanks.
Rob.

Hey Rob, why not just replace the switch, rather than risk frying the old one's contacts? A local breaker or a look on ebay should help.

Cheers,

...not against buying one used or whatever, but you just never know who's come up with what around here, so I figured might as well ask.

the contacts i'm talking about are basically a very small rectangular strip of metal bent back on itself w/a little round bump on it... I could make one out of a pop-top even I guess. :-)
