Nice instructable!
Only thing I'd add is that you have a choice of where to slot the spring into the castellated bolt (#20). Do this after first attaching the bolt to the cage. You can get more or less spring tension, depending. Too much tension can result in a snapped spring.

Oh, and you can also use a Vx-S or Vx-T cage for a medium cage Cyclone.
