Hey all. Thanks for your patience with this project. I have succesfully created some aluminum lock knobs with a nylon insert for easy installation. There is still the for sale ad in the for sale section that I will be updating soon.

Here are the links to the pics. Caution hi-rez.

Pic2
Pic3

...and I thought I would include a pic of my car here too since no one has seen....oh so many projects!



Cheers

oh boy, here we go again. I actually have been successful with a filled in one, but no pics yet. I have it engraved on a piece of nickel stock, but that doesn't do us much good. For that matter, I could make nickel locks as well smile.gif
