Hi,
I have a couple of Marklin Z 8587 un-couplers missing springs, any one know the SWG of the wire I should order to make some, as I have been unable to identify a source to make a purchase of replacements. The is an excellent U tube from a knowledgeable American guy making springs, so I thought give it a shot!
Thanks
Chas

Spring ∅ about 2.25mm, wire ∅ about 0.15mm (The 2 nails holding the spring apart a bit are 8999 track spikes).
