Wasn't planning on bringing the Payhauler to Cabin Fever, but I will. I had looked at various sources for the springs - leaf rake tines, spring steel from McMaster-Carr or other suppliers, clock springs - but had not considered a mower recoil spring. I think it could work. My first inclination is that recoil and clock springs are wound in a very tight circle and straightening them might be tedious, but not impossible. The banding material was handy to me and worked great.
