Dan,
I am sending this to the list in case others might want to try it as well.
Sorry to respond so late. I did a little googling on Google and found lots
of manufacturers, but nothing that didn't have a quote request link.
I got mine from a friend in the aerospace industry. I think what I would do
at this point is make my own spring. I make jump rings this way for the SS
pendants I make. To make the jump rings, I wind a length of sterling wire
around a brass rod and then cut them off with a jewelers saw. I just tried
it using .041 safety wire around a 3/8" rod. The resulting coil fit nicely
in a piece of .5" ID vinyl tube. I stretched it so there was about 1/8"
between turns and I could bend spring reinforced tube to about a 1" radius
and the coils held without collapsing. The tubing was clear so I could see
what the coils did inside - they held fine.

Just about ready to cover fuselage and left wing. And just made a vacuum
forming machine to make lenses for my aft position lights - I hope it works.
