| Mini project: Keypad mount |

| AdeV:
In order to add keypad security to the workshop, I need to mount a keypad (well, duuuh) on the steel door. Cue some milling.... Next steps, cut the piece out, radius the edges, a bit of spit & polish: Note the rather large problem on the right hand side: the slitting saw decided to ride up, which cut into the finished item. Unfortunately, I didn't have enough material left to mill the problem away, and this part has already taken too long to make, so it's staying as it is. Here it is bolted the door: Next steps - wire it up & get the servo mounted on the back of the door to work the lock. |

Wot 'appens when the barrery goes flat and you are locked out ? . |
| AdeV:
I use the key... |

Nice! Shame about the saw mark.... I'd fill it with something and make a feature of it! :thumbup: I'd like to see how this lock works too...Got a steel door to go in my shop soon I think? That's if it's not a secwet? Ralph. |

Make up a small card with instructions for operating the keypad. Install it in the saw slot. People will think it's a feature, not a fault. (Kind of like Microsoft software.) |
