RMweb Premium jamie92208 Posted February 7, 2021 RMweb Premium Share Posted February 7, 2021 To get away from the tribes on either side of Offa's , has anyone ever had the problem, when assembling things like buffers where there are small coil springs. The springs often nest together and are the devil to get apart without either losing or destroying one of them. Today I have thoroughly cleaned out two shower traps. These are the type that don't have a P trap below but rely on to springs pushing a part upwards to make a seal. One of them was sticking bit and when I completely dismantled it I found the reason, one end had 2 springs nested together where there should only be one. The offending extra was a tad out of gauge and made the seal unit slightly stiff to operate. Anyway it's all back together now and I now have a spare spring in case one gets lost during another cleaning session. The only problem now is where to put the spare spring so that it doesn't get lost. Happy days. The kitchen is starting to smell of roast chicken.

RMweb Gold Tony_S Posted February 7, 2021 RMweb Gold Share Posted February 7, 2021 (edited) I put tiny springs on something like an old jewellers screwdriver shaft. Bigger ones on bit of rod or tube. I don’t know if there is a proper way to insert springs but it does seem that two hands are not sufficient.
