Hard to find Mainsprings

[Victrolacollector]

So I located a dealer that has new old stock springs for a polly portable. From what I understand there are no new mainsprings being manufactured with the ¾" width with the longer length.

Someone should start making these odd ball size springs, I am sure there is a need for them.

Hmmm...maybe I should, but I have no knowledge or equipment needed for cutting springs...I think I will leave that to the experts...APSCO, Great Lakes, Ron Sitko and others that know how.

Quote from Wyatt's web site: "We make all our main springs and can make one to fit your machine if you give us the dimensions and how it is terminated, (pear shaped holes, bent over or loop end)."

Quote from APSCO web site: "We feature custom-made springs and have been able to supply every special end and odd configuration for all springs requested from us. All sizes available. Specify Brand, model, dimensions, end types, and center arbor diameter. For best results, send original spring for proper replacement."
