FYI - furloughed feds will be paid eventually but until then have no

I don't know why both wouldn't work. Locks are pretty simple devices. I have

A blind hole is one with only one opening. He suggests you just have to drive
out a couple roll pins, doesn't sound like that big a deal.
Those work almost exactly the same as the side cut key locks, take all the

Thanks Curt for your input, I'm getting there slowly but surely.
201 lock is different from 124 lock. After I looked at it and thought
about it a bit, it struck me that MB would not design a lock that can only
be assembled but not easily taken apart, and so the two blind pins were not
