Title: Replacement springs
Post by: JonnyGators on October 09, 2020, 12:19:47 pm
Where would one buy replacement springs for those 3 little springs that hold the plastic piece that the disk slides into in place?

Came up with a temporary solution for now - a rubber band around the whole thing.  Disks would not load with the lack of pressure from 1 spring missing, and I looked everywhere but it's just gone.  But a rubberband gives it the needed pressure for a consistent disk load.

Although I have my disk system working at the moment, I would like to return it to it's proper state with a replacement spring.  Is there any source for these springs?

I'm sorry, but there's none that I know of.
