Wood Lock 4

doodabug | Posted in Photo Gallery on

This one is called a pancake lock. Pushing on the key slides the latch bolt back.

More White Oak and Poplar. I spent alot of time organizing my shop while building this one so I lost track of time on it.

      The name of the book "Making Working Wooden Locks" by Tim Detweiler.

      Glad you like them.
