mass hanging from spring

Parts List (each station):
 
1 brass spring, large end down 1 one-meter stick

1 rod assembly to hang spring and hold meter stick

1 mass set
1 sport timer 1 damping disk    
something to stick disk onto 500g mass
Regular, "permanent" double-stick tape works OK, "removable" double-stick tape does not.  Best if the disk is never removed between experiments.
