I upgraded the bed springs on my Ender 3 and, taking inspiration from https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:3501887 I decided to make these clips to use the old springs. It shouldn't be difficult to adust to different spring sizes. I've tried a lot of pure PLA clips without long term success, but these clips are working great. Rather than reinvent a print-in-place hinge/joint, I decided to use the one from Grab Toy++.
Ender3 bed spring dimensions:
Outer diameter - 9mm
Inner diameter - 6mm
Compressed length - 10.5mm
Uncompressed length - 19.4mm
