I love the Yale lock on my safe and I am marveling at the entire antique safe experience including the people (it must be great to be able to manipulate open a closed safe). I am humbled to realize that many of these mechanisms are functioning within spec after a hundred years or more of routine operations. Generous people are everywhere. With patience, anger and misunderstanding will recede and be replaced by connections with experts who will recognize the restoration spirt of my questions and I will write more carefully. In the end we are talking about a nice 100 year old safe getting a new lease on life. The safe is the thing. |
