I have a few cabinet locks that need some repair work. Ranging from 1820 to 1940.

Where the **** do I start with that?

Remove the rivits and start playing! Cabinet locks from that era should be quite simple.

I wondered that, but is it likely stuff worked loose or worn and in need of replacing?

Done loads over the years.
All depends on how far you feel capable of going.

Do you not realise who this is?! This is Piemonster; he devours "pomegranate seeds and toasted pine nuts" for dinner.

I see little point in not going all the way
