First Attempt....

Was given some lower quality Chinese KIK cylinders recently and decided to have a go at making them in to some training locks.... 1 Spools, 1 Serrated and then a mix just for fun. Also tried machining from the rear of the lock, hoping it would make the thing hold together better and not pinch in a vice... didn't work out too well, you can't see the shear line on chamber 1!

Re: First Attempt....

That's quite good for a first attempt. What sort of mill do you use?

I would like a Medeco (Original or Biaxial) cutaway so if you will be taking orders let me know.

Nice work! We have several Bridgeports here at work along with all kinds of big CNC machinery. It's fun to look at!

Re: First Attempt....

awesome work for a first time. How I wish to have a mill machine :(, oh and put me on that list for a medeco cut away. I have a few of them laying around and would LOVE a cutaway.
