| Thanks Chuck for the link I have looked at your build many times it is awesome and is the reason I made my doors open instead of lifting you are a gifted craftsman but I will probaly try and copy your inside door latches I have been thinking about something like that and after looking at yours again I think that is the way I will go. Thanks for looking Lucky |

Logtrucker...absolutely beautiful work on those latches and handles. I have yet to build a double latch mechanism like that, pretty daring, very cool.  _________________
