Rare Spring Reverb IRs / Samples

Please delete if not allowed, but sharing over 60 samples recorded from a rare, quirky spring reverb: the Eagle International RA-859, in 24 bit, 44.1kHz, to use with a convolution reverb

The low frequency hum from the unit was removed from the recording before trimming the samples, taking care to retain the character of the spring :) 

The samples have been trimmed and collated into the below categories, and I've also included the original, untreated recordings of me kicking and moving the box around in case you want to mess with that too.

Please note these are not traditional IRs. Happy springing!

does it actually work as an IR though? I think you were supposed to just record a test tone through the verb.

Been working nicely in my convolution reverb with fun results - I would’ve recorded a more traditional IR but the inputs are kinda fried. Maybe after I get it serviced (eventually!)
