find center axis of a helix?

I've downloaded a 3d model of a spring and I now need the center axis of the helix in order to model a cylinder that the spring fits over.  I've tried everything I can think of.  Solutions i've found in the forum assume I have generated the helix, which I haven't.  Accuracy isn't a great concern.

 

Any ideas?
