I HATE digital calipers! In luger holster repair I use a dial caliper all day long. I thought..many years ago the digital would be neat. Every time I picked it up the battery was dead! I am stuck on "dial up"!

Gosh GT..I envy you the journey but it looks like you got on board and left the station at cashville and are on your way to dead broke junction? Since so very few of these springs are broken..the need is a little lean? There IS one possibility I can think of though. The Numrich repro drum has a noticeably WEAK spring! I wonder if your replacement spring would improve a Numrich drum?

God bless you my Son..I hope the creative process brings you enough joy to compensate for your expense and efforts..Just to satiate my wild curiosity if that is possible..how many US dollars is one of these springs going to cost the hapless owner of a drum wit a broken spring? Or perhaps it's too early to tell?

Just thinking out loud here..is it possible to make these and send them to a client or do they have to be expertly installed? Riveted in or?

Can they be made up and stored prior to installation? Or are they made as they are needed? I wonder as I have entered into several very rare projects where putting it together was a giant lengthy task but after several years the knowledge and effort and capability is..lost once again. It's not easy to pick it up again.

Gods speed..ONWARD! Thanks for the sitrep.
