##Tired printing springs?

Let's cook them with hot water :) Idea is to wrap a piece of PLA filament around a spring maker, slide everything in the spring maker sleeve (or holder) to hold the filament in place and stir everything in hot water for a few minutes. Create a thermal shock by throwing everything in cold water.

Three spring sizes (diameter) have been created and uploaded here. These are 8, 12 and 16mm diameter springs allowing you to use the three sizes in series (coaxial) in order to increase spring stiffness as per your requirements. It will need some sort of case to hold them coaxially. Different pitch and number of coils are available. Here is how I named them:
- The core (the central part) is named: SpringMaker_Core_d**XX**p**YY**x**ZZ**
- The nut is named: SpringMaker_Nut_d**XX**p**YY**
where **XX** is the main spring diameter in mm, **YY** is the pitch in mm and **ZZ** the number of coils/turns

Material memory form shall keep the spring in shape but best is
