If not, than anyone who doesn't care about your law can download plans that exist now and print everything but the spring. And print the form that they then wind spring stock wire around to make the spring.

3 printers are already cheap and soon will be in most homes. The plans are out there for free download.

A ban will stop exactly nobody except those inclined to follow the law.
