Spring Return Door Lock
Description
PDFI know, just another lock, but I wanted one with a spring return. I also like things that I can manipulate. I couldn't find exactly what I was looking for, so I made one. Maybe someone else out there needs one like this, maybe not.
The bolt and spring capture nut have been recessed to retain a 8mm spring that is 35mm long. The versions are just labels from Fusion 360, and have no affect on how this is assembled.
The holes are counter sunk for 4mm or #6 wood screws.
The bolt has two different handles to choose from, smooth or textured.
All parts have been printed before posting, and are in use now!
V6 lock body has additional fillet support as well as bidirectional rear position lock.

Notes:
I use rafts to print threaded parts perpendicular to prevent distortion. I run the hot end at 220 and bed at 40. I figure I don't need the extra bed heat with rafts. You can skip the rafts if you are confident with the bed adhesion or if you print the parts horizontally.
