Is there a source for square grand jack springs? I don't have any broken ones on this 1867 S&S square that I am working one, but seems to me that as long as I'm replacing the cords, I might as well replace the springs. Seems I recall running across some broken ones years ago on other squares. Very thin metal springs - certainly 147 years is enough for them to have deteriorated a bit.

Yes?  No?

Source?

Get out the spring-making tool?
