step 4:
specify the top radius of spring.. it'll same value unless your spring is of conical shape

now change the view of figure,if you have started to draw the spring in top view then change to front view...
or according to the view you've started to draw... final view should be like as shown in fig.
Step 8:
Now rotate the model slightly... so that you are comfortable to draw a circle over the edge of 2dspring.. (check fig.)
step 9:
draw a circle of required pitch you wanted.. using command C or circle or clicking the icon..
step 10:
now type command SWEEP and then select the circle (for Object to sweep)..
Step 11:
select the helix or spring for the sweep path...
Step 12:
