I thought that I would pass this one on. I lost a spring the other week when assembling a pen which I am sure most of us have done at some time or other.
I went to Maplins and they sell a box of 150 mixed springs for £3.59.
Although not all the springs will fit pens a lot will and for this price I thought it is well worth having for that moment when the air turns blue when a spring disappears in a load of shavings and sawdust never to be seen again !!!!

Why would you want to call Terry "round" now I have seen the pictures but never seen him in the flesh so wouldn't know if he was round........:face:

Cos he works his way round your workshop and its never the same again after he rounds up what he wants
