Welcome aboard Deivi, glad to have you. If you put your general location in the header we won't have to keep asking. You don't REALLY believe we're going to remember from mentioning it in one post do you? Besides you might be surprised how many of the IFI gang live within visiting distance.

I forge the spring and mount collar and plate on my 6 inch, the spring I used an old car leaf spring  { don't quench the spring , I found that out the hard way }. I never did take any photos of the forging but here is the finished product.

before , as bought and after mounted on railway line stand and bolted down
