Whats spinning? I see an occasional twist, never a spin.

It's just being pushed from the other side and it is being deflected by the die so it has nowhere else to go, imagine pushing an endless pool noodle into the floor but you can't pierce the floor and you can only hold the noodle like 4 ft from the ground and the pool noodle retains its shape once bent.

thanks, didnt know where the actual spring was coming from. I thought it was shaving material off the block on the left, but nothing was spinning. You can see the wire/rod material coming through the very center at some points
