Toggle Lock (PICTURES ADDED)

Yep, sheepherder, that is the piece and Tom does NOT have one. Thanks for the picture. Any chance there is a front view of the part to go with the side view? Thank you

Ted asked me about making one, and I believe it can be done. It's just one of those projects where you have to make multiple fixtures and setups, so making just one would be extremely time consuming. So is this a part that breaks often?

If there is this there a demand for this part, I can sure look into it. Some pictures of the back would be a good start.

The print shows three views of the lock plus the mainspring and a couple other parts I can't identify, should be in your mailbox.

Micro machining. Good luck!

Yeah, that's the part that scares me. Not only do I have to make the part, I also need to make a few "negatives" to use for holding it securely in the mill.

Luger parts are... well, I guess the best way to describe them would be "very 3-dimensional", so I would still like to see some pictures to make sure I'm reading the drawings correctly.

Olle, I fully understand, will have some soon to show.

Here are pictures of a good one next to the broken toggle latch/lock
