Pull yourself together

A friend from Scotland (he occasionnaly wears a kilt) invited me to his birthday party. He will be 70 years old.

In the invitation he wrote that sometimes he feels more like 100 years old.

So for those moments when he feels broken up,

I forged him a means to pull himself together and kick his heels :

Simple and functional

On this rustic armoire a lock both simple and efficient.

It is still elegant when open.

Simplicity does not prevent elegance in details.

And please notice that the holes all holes for the lag screws were forged rather than drilled mecanicaly.

This lock would be a nice addition to a garden gate as well.
