Oh very clean and it looks very functional. It appears that you used conduit. Why? It is more rigid and likley to break just so you know.

Hey Raptor, that's a 2 year old kick up...take note of the dates when you reply to something.

Home Depot has some few springs in the hardware section. Tractor supply has a little better selection. A hobby store may offer more yet.
