Lloyd, Did you know that the windup spring is as easy to unwind
as winding a pocket watch? A nail with a flat blade (screw driver)
with a piece of fuel line (rubber) pressed on to use as a grip. It will
take longer to find a nail and a piece of hose than it takes to make
this tool.

Apply side force to nail with a bungy or several rubber bands
and a " S " hook made from wire ( coat hanger) to prevent turning.

You will be on the floor if you do not have a MC jack --lift.
