    Hello,

    I do this on a daily basis. I can actually fix spring hinges with original flexible function in most cases. You can look couple of my videos on YouTube.

    But to do that you would need to invest quite a lot as you need laser welder for that purpose.

    In case some of you would badly need such repair, you can contact me and I could fix, but you would need to send glasses to Lithuania.

    Regards,
    Ed

    Confused Very Nice Job

    Very nice job... We use a micro-welder and can maintain the hinge function but not the spring. How do you remove the spring components? I've never tried that. Thanks,

    Rob

    I think spring hinges are a nice idea. Not much purpose in practice other than engineered failure.
