[Shop-talk] Repairing a clasp--could be shop-related

[Karl Vacek]

Any possibility of just gluing the clasp closed?

My the strap on my wife's purse has spring-loaded clasps that attach the
strap to the purse.  It's the same principle as a carabiner--you clip the
purse latch/clasp over the ring on either end of the purse and the strap
stays on the purse.

The 'spring' in the clasp is (or was) a wire.  Now the wire is gone.  
The upshot is that the strap won't stay attached to the purse, which is bad.
