I would suggest that they are not particularly necessary. Set the tension to
just let the sprue plate swing freely and you will find it works just fine without
one.

The local ACE hardware. Mine have two waves in them. No difference.

I have removed more wave washers than I have installed. I like Bill's approach better. Mike

With much self-restraint I will refrain from navy jokes.

Amazon.com has them in their Industrial & Scientific (http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_ss_i_0_5?url=search-alias%3Dindustrial&field-keywords=wave+washer&sprefix=wave+%2Cindustrial%2C344) section.

Last time I ordered from Lyman's Customer Service they were $.25 each. Money well spent IMO./beagle
