The wooden parts really absorbed a lot of sound, so the position of the object to the mic axis had a lot to do with the variation you hear. That had more impact than distance (which was pretty consistent). That final spring at the end, though, was that teensy of a sound! I'd definitely want to go back and re-record specific portions for use in another project to keep 'em cleaner. @Michael: Thanks!
