Two or three gages of music wire will make 90% of the springs you'll
ever need. Find a Mechanical engineering book or machinist's handbook
that has the formulas. I make quick & dirty mandrels out af any round
bar stock. You have to experiment with the springback diameter, but a
little calculation with give you the design for most anything.
