I can't help you with a tutorial, however what I've done in the past is dissemble an auto I've purchased and see what makes it "tick" then use it as a template. Boker top-locks make good autos.

Regards from Australia.

Re: Toplock


Thank you for both your replies. The use of a knife as template is a time honered way for sure of learning. Thanks for the link also. If anyone comes across something I can use, please post it here or on a new posting.

Re: Toplock


XSTAR,
If you want to know about auto's, don't do it in the public eye.
If you call me, I'll tell you anything you want to know, but I don't talk about auto's because of strict LAWS and the reputation that goes with them.

Hi Gene,
Yes thank you, I would love the opportunity. After Christmas and after my surgery on the 27th. I will be in touch after that.
Merry Christmas to all.
