Company that repairs/makes springs... useful to know.

Post by ComeOnYouReds! »

I have an old Proturner underpinner and one of the main foot pedal springs broke on a hook end. Now obsolete it is nigh on impossible to get spares so I was worried about finding a company that can either repair or make springs.
After a couple of phone calls I found the following company in Sheffield ... Springcoil Ltd.
I described the damage over the phone and was told they should be able to fix it. So a trip into Sheffield had me waiting for five minutes whilst they heated up and reformed the end coil and hook.
All for a fiver !!
And the springs are back on the machine fully working.
This may be of interest to you as I'm sure they would be able to help on Morso springs as well.
I've ordered two new ones as well, just in case, and they are charging me £30 each.
I've no affiliation at all with this company but it ought to be of interest to us all
