<DIV>I doubt if Home Depot will have the right springs. They need to be fairly good quality stainless steel. That link has the source for the correct size and metal. The design I followed called for 3/16" SS anchor shackles to attach to the fin posts. The SS wire is probably cheaper and easier. I also ran a length of nylon line thru the inside of the springs and tied to the shackles to limit the springs travel so they don't stretch out. If you do some searching, you'll find a lot more links to DIY spring straps.</DIV>
