Tubular Lock Body

<p>I bought the Southord tubular lock picks and 2 practice locks. They are very awkward to hold and try to pick open. I had also recently purchased Sparrows progressive lock set. The shape of the Sparrows lock body was very comfortable in the hand. So I decided to make a body along the same lines and shape of the Sparrows lock body, but make it work for tubular locks. In the end I printed 2 bodies. One for my 7 pin lock and one for my 8 pin lock.</p> <p>See a video of it here:<br/> <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gbl2skzLHPs"></a></p> <h3> Print Settings</h3> <p><strong>Printer Brand:</strong></p> <p>Ultimaker</p> <p><p class="detail-setting printer"><strong>Printer: </strong> <div><p>Ultimaker 2</p></div><strong>Rafts:</strong></p> <p>No</p> <p><p class="detail-setting supports"><strong>Supports: </strong> <div><p>No</p></div><strong>Infill:</strong></p> <p>20%</p> <h3> <br/> <p class="detail-setting notes"><strong>Notes: </strong> </p><div><p>On Cura's FAST setting this took about 1 hour to print.</p></div> Post-Printing</h3> <p>I made the hole that you put the lock into very tight. I had to use an xacto knife to trim the inner diameter of the whole to fit the lock into the body. Then I just applied pressure to fit it in.</p> <h3> How I Designed This</h3> <p>I designed the who thing in Tinkercad. I used Sparrows new lock body design and streched it to fit the tubular locks. I also left enough room to fit something (I used the back of the xacto knife blade) down the back to tighten the hex nut.</p> </p></p> Category: Hobby
