Interesting stuff about forces being applied to springs. It makes sense to me, though I have never really considered it. But I will be honest, I was raised by a farmer. So when it comes right down to it, Ill do what ever it takes to get the job done, and sometimes that means dealing with fallout later (but the longer I work as a professional technician, the more my ideas are changing). And deal with fall out I have had to, but failure is the best teacher right?
