WTD: Pillar drill return spring

Just bought myself quite a big drill press. It is missing the return spring that pulls the quill back up to the top when you release the lever.

Would look something like this:


Anyone know where I could get one? Or have one knocking about?

I have no idea what so ever... all the placards on it are just generic.... Provided the spring looks roughly like the ones in the picture im sure I should be able to make them fit.

Might have one at work - if you can live without it for a wee bit, bought a few for a Draper drill, I think , some firm in London that does lots of tool spares and router bits etc but I won't be in for about another 10 days, it is one of those items where the mnimum post and packing charge is about 5 x the cost of the bit you need, that's why we bought a few
