chowbeng Hello all, This is my first post here and I confessed I know next to nothing about locks. Please be gentle with me. 🙂 I have found a pair of old padlocks and the purpose of this post is to learn more about them. I haven’t been able to find much information about them, so I would be grateful if anyone would to point me at the right direction. I don’t think they are very old, probably early 20th cent and later. https://app.box.com/s/d7pfgo7w8a2mf020czqvh5bldfuymp9c https://app.box.com/s/ee7z4kaic5v8b2intqynrnlryxpo4z7d Thanks! chowbeng
