Its however according to me and my calculations :( not possible to do it with an eccentric setup as the lever-arm on the outside world is to small to overcome the crush required for the seal. My (current) design uses a lasercut set of 4130 pieces that are then jig welded to form a pin locking mech. I can send along some sketches if however is interested (I just need to know witch format you can handle) also to have the pieces made here in South Africa is very cheap.
