Ha! I didn't see your post. We were writing at the same time. ... And I did see the spring and remembered working on one and knew what I was looking at. I figured that they had that part right so I left it out of those fat arrows I had. I should have mentioned that. My bad.
Crosstitcher, Let us know if that worked for you.
