Please log in for more thread options go to you local hardware store. get a small piece of brass thin strip., a dremo tool, a punch set, tin snips, a small package of springs.(compression type) -- cut and form the holder for the springs, punch in a small tongue in the brass sheet that will hold the springs. cut 2 springs to the proper length and insert into the holders that you punched out. then with some home made electro plating using water salt and about 12 volts of so, place some nickel material on the - side and the springs with its holder on the + side using clips into the water. i could be wrong on the Salt, its been a while but i think that is the correct home solution to put in. you can guy the proper solution for plating. just a thought, that's all! :)) DavidPI73 wrote: | |||||||||||||

If you are talking about the contacts with coil springs that the batteries push against then you have some choices. Find some junk equipment that uses them and adapt them to your needs. Buy battery holders from the "shack" and pull out the contacts. Welcome to the world of improvising. Regards, Tom | |||||||||||||
