First Slip Joint

My first attempt to build a slip joint folder I got from TKS (no instructions). I can see right off there must be some special technique for dealing with the springs. I will continue to search the various forums but would greatly appreciate any advise or photos of actual construction methods from you guys.

I would contact TKS and see about instructions. Sorry I couldn't help more.

Hey Slick-
Check out this tutorial:

It's how to build one from scratch, but should work for you.
