    Good job Peggy, what I normally do at this point is to leave the wire on the mainsprings, and just wind the strike side a few turns. By doing that you can check the strike mech by turning the min. arbor by hand, to see that it is striking when it should. This way if an adjustment is needed, you won’t have to recapture the main springs to take it back apart. You will only have to let the strike back down tight against the wire. ;) Mahlon
