Hi Dick,

Thanks for the dimensions of the springs you have on your vertical.  Right
off....I can't imagine springs with holes in them
as being "the" original Sprengnether springs; mainly because I can't think
of a need/use for the holes...unless the holes
were some sort of crude visual positional indicators.  Logically; it would
seem that all 3 of us, are using "handy replacements"
put therein by the previous owners.   Its interesting that they all "work"
to whatever degree; with the vertical/s.

Take care, Meredith
