I just bought a nice Red Head hand drill. Unfortunately this makes four drills I need to find chuck springs for. One Millers Falls drill needs the protected type spring. I realize I will only get that when I find the right parts drill.
The other drills I need springs for are a Stanley, Goodell-Pratt and the Red Head. Each of these drills use three 1/8" outside diameter coil springs. There is nothing special about them. They are generally about 1/4" to 3/8" long. Longer springs can be cut to length. They are a little smaller diameter than any pen spring that I have found.
I have searched on line, a hardware store and a power tool repair shop.
Any suggestions where I might find such springs?
