Re: Creation Window locks Reply #27 – July 27, 2020, 08:13:04 pm I just did the old poker chip thing, depending on the thickness you may need to glue two together. Quote Selected
Re: Creation Window locks Reply #29 – July 29, 2020, 10:21:36 pm Thanks again Rich. I made the first one today and have three more to make. I had 1/8 x 1 x 2 angle aluminum in the shop whichwas perfect. A hack saw and a file and done. Quote Selected
Re: Creation Window locks Reply #30 – July 29, 2020, 11:16:36 pm Question, what makes them break? And will whatever breaks them be damaged by an unbreakable object? Quote Selected

Then stupidly closed the window without adjusting the latch back to opened position. Snap, there goes another one. Quote Selected

Re: Creation Window locks Reply #33 – July 30, 2020, 10:43:00 am The locks on my rig were broken when I bought it, 4 of them were broken. Quote Selected
Re: Creation Window locks Reply #34 – July 30, 2020, 11:03:49 am Over the years I've broken three. All by closing the window with the latch in the wrong position. Fortunately I was able to buy replacements back then. This might be a good project for someone with a 3D printer. Quote Selected 1 Likes
