Spring for northern tool sharpener

[pelhamjeff]

Evening, gents. I have a northern tool sharpener I bought in 2010, model 193020 and tonight I broke the return spring where the 2 main parts pivot. Does anybody know if the spring for a 511 oregon sharpener will work? Attaching a picture of the broke one if I'm smart enough to do it. Thanks all!

Ok I know there are a lot of these NT sharpeners out there and some of them will have their springs fail. Lucky me, we had several in a drawer at the shop and I bought one this morning at cost. The grinders we have are Tecomecs and the spring is identical. See pic for model
