Shot blast cabinet door latch

[thehomeengineer]

Hi All
On closing the door of my shot blast cabinet the door latch fell apart from wear and tear. My first thought was to just buy a replacement but trying to get an exact match was impossible and I didn’t really want to drill additional holes. So the only option was to make a new one.

New latch painted

In place and works really well

This only took a hour and half to make so pleased with the result.
