ss washers and spring..where to order?

[donnah]

I'm wanting to try to mod my genesis attys with screws to have the spring and washers like my rsst. Lowes doesn't have anything small enough. Has anyone done this and found a place and size for the washers and spring? I'm wanting to do this to my full size DIDs.
Thanks!

Hmmm.. I'll answer my own question. I just ordered some washers and springs. Here are the washers I ordered and here are the springs. I'm sure the springs will have to be cut in half.

Right now, I took the washer off of the rsst and a spring out of an ink pen and they are working rather well on the DID, makes it super easy to capture that top wire. As far as the washerless rsst, it's working fine without it's washer. I was told by captivape that they are getting in replacement parts for the rsst in the next couple weeks... so they should have washers and springs also. The spring off of the rsst is a bit tall for the DID though.

I haven't got the ordered washers and springs yet but will post on this thread whether or not they work. If anyone is interested..

I buy a ton of hardware from them for my RC and Robot projects... Usually the 18SS grade...
