burdell1 old hand Registered: 14/01/2002 Posts: 931 Loc: Minnetonka, MN	Both of my springs on my empeg's handle broke. Does anyone know what would make a good replacement for them?

Are you willing to supply the general market with springs or do you have a contact for the manufacturer? Either way, what is the cost per empeg for the new springs? Thanks! _________________________ 10101311 (20GB- backup empeg) 10101466 (2x60GB, Eutronix/GreenLights Blue) (Stolen!)

I am not sure what I paid or what I'll be charging yet - let me check. It will be at cost + postage. _________________________ One of the few remaining Mk1 owners... #00015

I think I speak for most of us when I say we all want you to be able to continue doing support for a long time. To that end, I think you should at least add some nominal fee to cover your time and energy spent. Matthew
