If it were me, and i was dead set to do such a thing, I'd find an existing Flinter and purchase it.

Then

If it were me, I'd upgrade the lock to one of these.

Again if I was really dead set to do such a thing. Otherwise I'd find ( or build) me a nice custom flinter.
They are out there!!!


Bonne chance!!!

And yet it irks me the poor dappled fools,
Being native burghers of this desert city,
Should in their own confines with forked heads
Have their round haunches gored."
