Thank you so much, really enjoyed. The most interesting part for me was when you created the key for the box - I am desperate to get a key for my box... I know was not the main purpose of the video, but could you please give me some tips to understand it bit more, or do you have another video I can follow? Many many thanks again!

Very nice restoration. I also particularly enjoyed the leather work and the metal fabrication. And that key! Wow. I liked the gray color for the drawer liners. It’s nice change from all the green felt.

Hi there, thanks for the comment. Yes usually people put in green felt but I don’t like that as it picks up so much grease and oil. Whilst it might not look like it, this is a good quality fabric from a local haberdashery and a bit more hard wearing than felt. Thanks for the feedback. Please consider subscribing for more!

I have a similar box with a similar lock. How did you determine the correct spacing of the key to get the lock mechanism to work? I’m on my 5th key attempt, still not working.
@JKLProjects3 жыл бұрын
Hi there, I think I got a little bit lucky with the key. I was playing around with the mechanism to see how it worked and then used a small flat file inside the lock to provide some tension and to my surprise it opened! I think mine is a very basic lock and has no grooves it just needed a piece of flat metal. If I hadn’t got lucky with the file I was going to cut a piece of metal that fit and then just file it down bit by bit until I worked. Sorry I can’t give more information I got quite lucky with it. Also if you look on eBay for similar chests to yours (same brand) etc and ask the sellers if they have pictures of the key or even if they can draw around the key with a pencil and paper and then send you it, you can stick it onto a metal blank and cut it / file it out. I contacted a few and some were happy to help but luckily I didn’t need it in the end. Many thanks, please subscribe for more. JKL.

Three plates inside and 2 of them are the tumblers. The latch bottom is thicker than the other two. You just move up from the bottom that is left full width of the key and then adjust the other 2 cut-outs. Accuracy is required or they move too much or to little for the latch to slide down the slot. There are two springs inside so everything needs to be clean and rust free.

Great restoration! Little bit of advice for future videos that i hope you will take on board and not be offended by not mentioning - Fade to black transitions are too jarring when cutting between shots as frequently as you are doing, please just cut without any transition effects when the cuts are close together.

I have just been rebuilding a few bits on my Father's one of these. He was a tool maker for life. A few things to note. I didn't have a key so I made up a few to test and modify with thin plastic that was easy to cut with a boxcutter. Took a few attempts and trimming to push the tumblers just far enough. My profile ended up being nowhere near as simple as the one here. I would suggest that even though it appears to work its probably wrong (maybe you got lucky the number "12" lock was the simple one mine has a "6" lock) , the tip of the key is quite small as well as it goes right through the back of the lock. Basically only 2 tumblers so was not hard to see what was going on with the lock removed. That plate round the lock (13 minutes in) on the front actually has a rectangular cut-out between the mounting screws. This allow a bit of paper or card trapped behind it so you can write your name on it. Nice picture of a genuine key here:- www.worthpoint.com/worthopedia/vintage-neslein-drawer-engineers-1819612816 I'm taking my plastic template to a locksmith to get 2 proper keys cut for it.
