        In the July, 2009 journal, there is a procedure for replacing upright hammer butt springs.  In the article it explains slipping a steel rod through the coil of each spring.

        I will be replacing a set of springs on a spinet soon.  I went to Home Depot and the smallest diameter steel wire was still too big to push through the coil of my sample spinet spring I had with me.

        Any suggestions are appreciated, thanks!
