:lol: :lol: :lol: Subject is " HOMEMADE " , To me, the final result is important. where I live is very difficult to buy tools as you want. Should I take advantage of everything there is. Overcome the hard problem of anything is the desire of the lock enthusiast ! Do you think so? I will post video "how to grinder work". Using a simple - to handle complex - is my pleasure :D

That is an awesome idea. I would imagine you could use something other than a thin knife, correct? Like some thin Stainless Steel sheet, or similar?

Great idea! I would also like to have Corel templates. Think someone (Romstar) could maybe draw some up for us?
