Hey Mods, not sure if you will want to move this or even merge it with the Paddy Auth Tips, but since I have had a lot of reqs for comparison pics, I thought I would just get it over and post them ;)

Here goes!! Please, others add pics of variants :heart:

here is a config for the bottom of the lock, although the screw placement can vary:

and the handles, note how the seams for the handle and the handle gaurd are going in opposite directions:

the handle seam faces in, while the guard seem faces out.
