We are building a scale in physics using the concept of spring force. However when we use different masses we get different K values. Why isn't our k value constant for our spring force project?

The k value is constant for the spring force project because the spring used is of the same material.
As I recall this experiment with a wire, instead of a coiled spring, the wire had kinks in it -- so it was a compound spring. A kink would act as a spring until it was stretched out, and then it would add (a litttle) to the length of the wire. It was a mess to figure out. In your experiment, try adding weights of (x), (x+delta), (x+2*detla), where x is a weight and delta is a tiny, tiny weight. The k value might be constant over that small range of values.
