Got my Squirt today and just stumbled on this thread, so off to KnifeKits.com I went to order the spring and drill bit.

Making the Squirt into an Automatic will make it one sweet little knife.

Has anyone been successful in converting the Squirt to an auto?

I drilled out the hole in the blade with a 3/64 spade bit and tried to install the .357 coil spring, but the darn spring is to tall and will not stay in the recess. I tried shorting the coil and that did not work either. If someone has gotten it to work, can you tell me your secret.

Order the .375 Mega spring. it's not as tall as the high torq and fits the recess.

I tried the High Torque which has a stack height of 0.135 but the Mega Torque has a stack height of 0.174. Am I missing something, I am a novice at knife making/modification?

Correction, I should have said the Maxx torque spring. My bad. Call CKK Industries at (877) 255-6433. They will set you straight.
