Phil, I tend to think vertical is best. I believe horizontal would tend to make the plate appear shorter.

Peter, David D

My wife spotted the barrel yesterday - it will be sorted as soon as it's fit to open the front door - it's snowing heavily at the moment and it's very windy.

I agree with Peter (sorry David) - pozidrives are rather industrial and would look out of place on my 116 year old Victorian front door (3' 9" wide and no chance of it ever being replaced with a white UPVC one where pozidrives might be acceptable).

I'm going to have another go at an MDF wheel. I think some of the problem might be that I exported the model from ViaCad at too low a resolution. I need to get the code redone and I may try videoing some of it being machined again.

Cheers.

Peter, Phil.
Yes, I have to agree, on an aged door.  :thumbup:

With a "Victorian", stainless plate and Yale lock......   :D
