    Posted: 21 Nov 2011 at 1:26pm
Is there a source for the spring loaded latch that's spot welded to the inside of the door on the model B tool box (see image)?  I'd like to restore my tool box but the latch is beyond usable and I'd like to find a replacement.  As always, any help is gretaly appreciated.
Jim

pop out the pin and just get a "new" door.  just be sure which way the hinge is oriented, as there are not equal number of "loops" per side, as Bill P SEMI found out.
Good judgment comes from experience. Experience comes from bad judgment.
From listening comes wisdom and from speaking comes repentance.
Wise men learn more from fools than fools from the wise.

 The latch on my B is missing but the hinge is a little stiff up at the top. I open the door when I park it in the shed so mice don't move in right away. If you leave the door closed, they're in there in a week.
