I see that MMC offers to locate torsion springs to your specification.
Doesn't give pricing, but might not be too bad.

I have found spring wire (aka piano wire) at my local Orchard Supply Hardware
(OSH).  But MMC also carries the wire, if you can't
find it locally.

Or it would likely be cheaper at Amazon, if you happen to have Amazon Prime
(and don't live near a MMC warehouse).
