Re: Bear Claw latches

I think the point is safety, with an ulterior motive of making something awesome in the process. Subtlety rocks - most folks won't even notice this when you're done. That's why I like it so much.
That is some beautiful fab work - thanks for sharing.

Re: Bear Claw latches

I agree with jocko, if you know anything about fab. work this is really amazing. To get the latches in is one thing but to get the stock rods to operate the inner and outer handles and the lock is really hard to do. If you ask what's the point, then you really wouldn't understand.
