Hope your local spring company can help you
My spring guy in Sydney needed my old springs to test the dimensions and compression rating. I went one step further and took the scope with me to show him the issue with the primary mirror adjustment
Although he knew nothing about astronomy he knew exactly what I was after and machined the new springs to work so much better than the original cheap and nasty Chinese springs.
I had 2 sets made up so they will outlast me
Good luck !

Back to the original post , any other comments in regard to collimation fears or apprehension when choosing your first scope ??
