    Default In need of Clarke Combo Lock buttons!!!

    Hi all, I am in need of 4 Clarke combo lock buttons (1 active & 3 inactive) or whatever I can find to complete my lock.

    I have had this lock in my collection for a while but never bothered with it. I just got around to messing with it and got it working and I am seriously looking to complete the project. If you have pins for these for sale or trade, let me know. You can contact me at mindhunter42 @ hotmail .com. Thanks! :D

    Cheers, Mike D~C/

    Have you thought of making some? Or having some made by someone with a machine shop?

    Bob Dix offered to make me some repro pins for this lock and I am going to take him up on his offer.

    Talking

    Well, Bob made me some buttons and I got them yesterday! :razz: I put them in and the Clarke is finally complete and in perfect working order once again!!! Here are a couple of photos:

    I am glad that I decided to take on this project instead of letting it sit on the display board, non-functional and missing pieces......this is a lock that belongs in working condition and complete. I didn't much care for it when I got it (it was a throw-in on a deal I was doing) but it is now one of my favorite locks in my collection! The little guy has grown on me! ;-) Thanks to everyone who helped out or tried to help out on this project.

    Cheers, Mike D~C/

    Dean, I should have got a few pics of this lock as I was working on it, but my hands were covered in WD-40, dirt, grease, and other nasty stuff so I didn't take the camera out. However, I did want to photogragh the insides so I may take it back a part and shoot some pics in the near future. When I do, I will post the pics here. :wink:
