I have this grouse box for sale - no lock, but not hard to find.
Asking $25 plus postage for it. Has FC Holden pictured on the box.
Rare display item in VGC.

Sure is thanks Ken Grin. Does anyone have any idea where inner rubber sleeves for the sta-put could be made or does anyone have one.

I've never tried this but I've had thoughts that a large diameter heat shrink tube might be able to be made work.
1. Make a wooden buck turned to shape of the tube, cover with grease proof paper.
2. Shrink tube down gently leaving excess at the front.
3. Get something like an ice cream container and cut a strip to wrap around the front.
4. Warm the heat shrink and fold it back over the plastic. Tricky........
5. Trim to suit.


Best I can come up with

I used bicycle inner tube for the "pipe" bit of mine, and folded the ends over. This bit worked really well. I used the same rubber for the "clamp" bit that the lock goes through - harder to do, lots of cut, stretch, clamp and glue.

 Thanks for the ideas Wink.

 Ian, I just use my local locksmith and pick a key blank that matches or looks similar, very easy for them as most are Lockwood padlocks.

cheers
