Hello, I am going to try and fabricate a money clip with a hinge. What gauge silver is best? Any preferences on the hinge tubing size? Overall length and width. Thank you for your suggestions.
None of my clips are hinged. I simply bend them on a bending jig I made years ago when I worked as a machinist. I make my clips using 16 gauge (.050) German silver and Sterling silver. Bending work hardens the material thus giving it the spring needed.
