You may have more luck finding them than making them the correct size.Blush Rotfl

Here is the top die.
   
   
   

It is about 30mm too long, I left that to hold it in the 4 jaw.
Also the top flat is only 1.5 mm wide I need to make it 2.5mm or so.

Cut to length - making sure it fits and all held together with "ticky tape" Popcorn

I didn't have any luck finding some compression springs. Slaphead So I might have to make a couple, if I can find any spring wire.
