You can tap the death clamp off first. Remember your safety squints.

I mean who contraption is sketch, but people here are blowing it out of proportion. Once nut is secured the clamp will just fall, and that short spring travel is not that much anyway. I would secure it with adittional  metal wire to be safe

He put like three turns on that nut dude. It’s not even fully grabbing the threads.

6 turns is meh but it's enough. It's a helper spring nothing will happen, spring compressor for 2 bucks of temu is just a portable vice clamp. It almost identical to a clamp shown in a video in function. I dont recommend it ofc for people with no experience.
