pitchy,
Like one gentleman said about firing his matchlock. "Don't wear your best clothes."

How about a small DC electric motor, a stepdown cog, a diamond chip covered wheel and a piece of chisle steel. Now there would be a wheellock that would work every time!
The project should hold you for a whole week. Hee! Hee! :grin: :shocked2:
