Jack,

I have given thought to cutting it from something, the clock mainsprings are
a little thin for what I need. The spring from an old steel trap would be
perfect, but I understand they no longer make those.

At the moment all I have is the need. That need is a flat spring about
1/4"
wide .070- .085 thick and about 6" long. How would you make a spring
like
that? Materials etc???

I appreciate you guys,

Roger



One method is to obtain the large main spring from an old clock and cut
the
size you need.
