Ive given it consideration, and may well braze another bottle boss to avoid the clamp. I am thinking that to improve it I ought to run a braided steel cable through the inside of the spring, thereby giving me a hard stop as well as the tension provided by the spring. THough a project such as this will have to wait until I am ready for a new paint job...
