Wooden Lock Project, SSW 46

Hi Gang,
Ramjet pointed out an error we had in the article. In step 5, we say to use a 1 1/2" Forstner bit to drill the key insert hole. Unfortunately, the fractional equivalent we put after the fraction was incorrect. You need to use a 38mm not a 13mm bit.

I'm sorry for the error.

Best Regards,

Another error in the Materials List:
The materials list calls for 1/2" (13mm) wooden buttons. The 1/2" (13mm) refers to the diameter of the top of the button. Buttons are often sold based on the diameter of the part that fits into the hole, which should be 3/8" (10mm).

Best Regards,
