how to compress: 2-ways
1. two people, one with strong hands
2. strong bailing wire
3. very large channel locks
4. various pliers and wire cutters

compress 2 rungs of spring with channel locks
while second person wraps tightly with precut
wire. move up the rungs a few inches and repeat ect
until spring is compressed enough.
if you can do with only one person, clamp the
channel locks with a clamp, maybe lock grips.

could also compress the rungs with two steel bars
and two screw clamps. this seems easier. one
person. i like it
