Old Padlock Replica

Here's My Take on Replicating an Old Lock Design from Scratch, Inspired by a Manufacturer in CT. I'm pretty pleased with how my design turned out, if I do say so myself! The lock looks like it was plucked straight from the past. Printing DetailsPrinter: Flashforge Creator Pro DualRafts: NoSupports: NoResolution: 0.20Infill: 50% By using a higher infill percentage, you'll get a more realistic feel to your lock, and it'll be perfect for keeping containers closed without getting blown away! Twenty percent is nice too, but keep in mind it's very light. Printing TipsPrint both pieces then glue them together. Use Super Glue for the job. When printing the lock pin, make sure it's slightly into the bed to create a flat surface. This will prevent it from getting dragged around by the printer head during the printing process.
