Abstract: A dual purpose spring coiling machine adapted for two point and single point coiling and particularly adapted for convenient and rapid convertibility from one form of coiling to the other. The machine comprises a coiling tool slide assembly mounted on a frame generally opposite a wire feed and guide means and adjacent a coiling station. The tool slide assembly comprises a coiling tool slide and a guide mountable selectively on the frame in three discrete positions. Right and left-hand two point coiling positions respectively employ mounting of the guide in first and second positions inclined upwardly and downwardly 221/2.degree. from the horizontal. Single point coiling is achieved with the guide mounted horizontally. Coiling tool holders mounted on the slide may be selectively moved from one position to another for right and left-hand coiling with a first holder mounted on and movable with the slide.
