Open is easy, You can look at it and tell it's an over-center mechanism. The back piece of latex tube would clearly hold it open under tension. I'm more curious about what moves the two halves far enough forward to break-over and snap shut. Is it just inertia when the middle hits the bar?

There's no feeling quite like that one you get when you're behind the diamond plate controlling a metal beast that you've put your blood (literally), sweat (more literally), and tears (probably literally) into, and it working. Undescribable. - scali [more]
