Window latches

Post by 8170 »

Since getting the window latch assemblies are next to impossible to get I am thinking about building some tooling and making a run of them. Just wondering if anyone else is interested in a set. I am going to make them for my aircraft and a friends regardless so if you are interested let me know. Thanks.

I'd be interested in a set, the price for new ones (even old used ones) are insane!

I'm working on the drawings and getting the parts water jet cut. I want to keep the price point around $50 each plus shipping. More to follow

I have to make the prototype and see if I can legally sell them. Once I get one made for my aircraft I will talk to the right folks to make sure its ok. Worst case scenario I can just share the process I used to make mine with the community and folks can make their own. Either way its a win right?
