I recently bought a set of files for the jigsaw from that seller and was very pleased with the transaction. :)
Thanks for posting here. It probably would have slipped me right by as I don't see every notification from that Facebook group.

I'm expecting them in the mail today.

I installed my old new brass wedge locks today after cleaning up and coating the handles. I can honestly say I agree wholeheartedly with every other post I've read where someone says they don't know why SS ever changed from brass (for the two piece design). They lock positively and securely, and release with less than half a turn. Thanks for the discussion and thanks again for the heads up that these were available on the FB group.
