Guest little_lloyd Posted July 5, 2007 Report Share Posted July 5, 2007 Use a jigsaw. I would get the springs first and get yerself a rough idea of the size plus you can get different sized springs. Quote Link to post
Alhoy 0 Posted July 6, 2007 Author Report Share Posted July 6, 2007 LL tried using the spring in the feeders...found them to be a pain....always getting stretched...by roe.....ended up taping round the spring till about 1 inch of spring was left showing ..so the wheat wasn't coming out to easy...lol cheers Alhoy Quote Link to post
