These little springs broke and I'm looking for replacements. Nobody sells just the springs, you have to buy the entire latch. Anybody run into this issue before, and have a recommendation for springs? Thanks.

Why did you upload a screenshot of a pic instead of just uploading the pic?

Just wondering :craz

Just because I'm computer illiterate. I wanted to circle the spring in the pic and only know how to "print screen" to paint, then circle it and save there. Hope I didn't offend you. :craz

Not at all. I was working out in my mind what the rationale was, but could not come up with nothing. :lol

I guess I think everybody has photoshop.

You know you can do that in faststone? Double click the image then float your mouse to the bottom of the screen.
This will bring up the edit menu. Click on the abc icon and do your thing.

Floating the other edges brings up other menus.

Faststone kicks arse.
