The way I have constructed the eye mechanics, there is currently no centering mechanism. I prefer NOT to use springs as posts behind the eyes. I like wood dowels with a round brass synchronizer inserted in small holes in the dowels. There is a way to attach a spring to the center of the synchronizer and to the back of the trap door, but that seems inconvenient if one ever has to get back into the head.
I'm considering a spring that attaches to the front of the head and attaches to the center of the brass sychronizer bar. Hmmmmmm.....
More later.
