Of all of the parts of the 1 1/2" A-3 that I find challenging to make, it is those springs that intimidate me the most.
I am a lifetime machinist, with a very complete machine shop, but I have never done very much heat treating, and the book doesn't seem to give me much guidance. If I had the curved spring steel, I even have an edm machine I could use to make the springs, but the process of annealing the spring steel, forming, and making the springs, and then re-heat treating the springs is not explained very well.
Is there any place I can find an explanation of the process of doing this, or is there a source where I can buy those spring leaves?
Thanks for the help.
Dave
