Hi All,
As a collector of many old things I could not resist this lock when it came up for auction recently.
I have a few locks of this type but none are as large as this one at 14″ long, 8″wide and 2″ thick. My question is about the proportions of the key I need to make and is there a picture of a similar lock and key somewhere?
The pin would need to be 9/16″ diameter and 2″ long. The height of the keyhole is 1 ⅞″. Whatever proportion I sketch the key looks wrong, if I scale up a smaller one it would be almost 12″ long and the loop would be 3 ½″ across. Any info appreciated!
Dave.
