Tension springs

[affrontemd]

Have found method of creating tension springs
beyond 1/4" with high resolution.

create 1 (one) coil using wire dia and o.d. of
spring, save according to size

create 1 clip end on single coil that you have
created and save according to size as clip end.

open new assy dwg insert single coil array number
of coils need to accomplish lenght of coil less
clip end minus 2 coils.

insert clip end constrain to faces, constrain
(fit) using wire dia's, constrain (x or y or z)
axis for fully constrained clip end

repeat for other end clip end rotating before
constraining.

This gives a high resolution and quick tension
spring drawing.

How about a post to CF?
