Hello, everyone.

I'm not holding out much hope on this one.  TR3A switches have holes drilled
into their stem.  Tiny dowels fit into these holes, and the dowels are held in
place on one side by clip springs.

After 45 yers, the clip springs on a couple of my switches are toast.  I'm
going to have to fabricate or source these.  Sourcing seems doubtful, without
buying the whole switch.

Anybody have advice on how to fabricate these tiny springs?  I'd imagine the
trick is finding the right material to start with.

Thank you, everyone.
