Hello everybody. In the manufacture of caskets, chests, etc. homemadeOften, latches are required. Buying them is not a problem, and they are not expensive. But if suddenly there are none, then you have to improvise. As the author of the YouTube channel TehDoor did, you can visit his channel. There you will find many interesting inventions and life hacks. I'm not saying that this homemade product is the best, there are many more options that are much better, more convenient and safer. But as an option, you can view or make as desired. I will describe to you how to make this lock, but if something is not clear below there is a video where everything is shown in detail.
Let's start, for manufacturing you will need:
1.Bolt and wing nut
2. Steel plate
3.Two nuts
4. Grinder, welding machine, drilling machine and tools
Step 1. Production
I hope you do not need to describe how this castle works. After all, it is very simple to manufacture and does not contain any secret. For manufacturing, the author cuts off the cap from the bolt and divide the bolt into two parts. Two parts of the bolt are welded in a T-shape, nuts of the required size are put on a smaller part. Then the nuts are welded to a piece of steel plate. Next, two mounting holes are drilled in the plate. Then there is more in the plate, a sample is cut under the bolt.
Step 2. Final touches
Now it remains to fix the lock on the product, you can see how to do it in a photo or video. So, from the simple materials that can be found in every workshop, you can make such an interesting and reliable (you can argue) castle. That's all, thank you for watching.
