I'm assembling a 6/0 from Tom

This is my very first.
Although the cut out for the second dog works, you will need to make a small bend at the end of the spring so it would stay in position.
Just make sure the bent part has enough clearance with the clutch spring.
If you didn't make that loop, the ratchet would lift that spring right out,
Hope this helps.
Thanks for doing this for us Tom, it is a big help.

Forget about all the reasons why something may not work. You only need to find one good reason why it will.

I discovered this as well. Unfortunately my phone lost the picture.... I did discover that the replacement 114h spring from mystic was too short to add the extra bend and still provide tension. I had to use the original spring.
