Re: The humble beginnings of my collection

Well it has been a little while since ive updated my locks on here. I believe this is what i have received since I last posted.

This is a Magnum lock, i have never had a wafer lock that wasnt some little 4 wafer padlock or something, so thought I'd grab something that was a tad bigger.

Here are my newest padlocks, the small yale is a wafer lock, followed by a small corbin, the next corbin looks identical to the other one i have just smaller, has the same patent dates as the large one as well. The last corbin is a warded padlock, not sure why the offset? Next is the sargent, stamped U.S.N GF 1880 and then a warded RFD mail padlock.

And this one is a tad different looking than my others for obvious reasons. I will probably start a seperate thread when i get the chance to sit down and get to spinning. Sargent Greenleaf 6741 I believe.

Nah! You won't get addicted. Not at all. Just give it a spin. You can quit anytime you like. Just like the rest of us.

:twisted:

Re: The humble beginnings of my collection

It's a vicious circle ;) The first step is admitting you have a problem. lol

Actually the first step is just getting the damn thing mounted....

which you've done a beautiful job of btw!
