Speaking of folder springs...

.... as we were in the Chris Crawford thread...

Is there a guideline, or, ideally, a formula to calculate the
proper spring dimensions? I believe the critical paramters would
be: Spring length (from center pin to end, and from center pin to ***
pin), spring thickness (thickness of the stock from which spring is
cut), and spring width.

In other words, for a given spring length and stock thickness, how
wide do I cut/grind it to get an appropriate 'snap' to the action?
