Zsartell Posted July 9, 2009 Share Posted July 9, 2009 Hi all, Here is a little project I am just finishing up. It's a key that a woman commissioned for me to make from a picture she had. It's not quite as decorative as the original, but her budget didn't allow for any more detail work and this is what I came up with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CurlyGeorge Posted July 10, 2009 Share Posted July 10, 2009 What does it fit and did it work? Looks like you did a great job! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zsartell Posted July 12, 2009 Author Share Posted July 12, 2009 Thanks all for your kind words. The two key pieces were riveted on and then filed flush. The head was silver soldered on and shows no sign of ever coming loose. I have decided to do a little more detailed work the the head as I'm just not happy with it the way it is. I'll post the finished key here next week when I get some more time to work on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Svarttrost Posted July 12, 2009 Share Posted July 12, 2009 Wow, that is one nice looking key. I've made few keys aswell but they weren't that decorative, they were going to actual use. After seeing that one maybe I'll have some new things in mind the next time some lock needs a mate :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
