WOW! that was a very long time ago!

Apparently someone, I can't remember who it was, liked it so much he made me an offer I couldn't refuse and I sold it to him.

I sort of remember it.

It used ball point pen springs that were compressed to absorb the shock of landing.

The springs were slipped over 1/8" wood dowels. I tried to redraw it so you kinda get the idea.

The spring is curved into place.
