Timber bits question

Today I managed to try & pick up off the floor a spring from a Jr Gents kit that was from TB, Sod's law dictates that as the spring compressed under my grip the damn thing pinged from my fingers & a 3 hour clean up of the workshop has still failed to locate the the said spring :vangry:
On the bright side the workshop is now very clean, on the down side I've looked on the TB site & can't see how to order just a spring, I do need to place an order for kits so could anyone advise on how I can add a spring to my order?

Sorry if this seems a dumb question. :nooidea::nooidea::nooidea:

I have done the same with these springs Doug, thou mine has been as i have opened the package on to the bench the spring bounced off .. As Alex says, if you drop him an email after the order has been placed he will pop it in your box of goodies .. :winking:

Thanks for the replies :thumbs:


I have a few extras Doug if you want one on the quick

I'm not in a rush mate, but thanks for the offer, I'll bare it in mind if my order doesn't arrive before I need it, though fortunately I have a couple more kits. :up:

Doug if you get the really strong magnets from an old hard drive put them either end of a rule its great for covering large areas looking for small metal objects a row of rare earths will do the same just a tip for future dropings.

Strong rare earth magnets in every microwave they are like bums every electrical repairer has a box full to chuck out they are circular with a hole in them and if you plonk none in a plastic bag they stay clean and are easier to use in sawdust etc. I have them all over my machinery to hold chuck keys, special spanners etc.

Best part they are free in bulk.

Kind regards Peter.
