    Bending Spring Steel

    Hello All,

    I would like to bend some replacement spring tool fingers for my mills ATC, I need 3 replacements.
    attached is a scale drawing of the spring and a picture.

    I bought some 1075 Blue spring steel but it too hard to wrap around without breaking.

    So my question is: do I want to use what I have and anneal and then re-harden the bends or buy anneal spring steel bend and then harden.

    Thanks,
    Bryan
