I don't know but the last time my house was broken into they go over 8,000 worth of my stuff, including two computers and the tv. The time before they got the tv, one computer and the microwave. Both times in during the day, so I guess that people don't think it is uncommon for people to carry things out of houses and into what they are driving. The third time I was home when they tried to kick in the back door, I surprised them and the four teenagers ran like hell, to their suburban and took off.

i would go to hobby lobby or something and get a alumilite casting kit. its like $12-17 but it comes with everything you need to cast w/e.

My desk at work uses this kind of key, but I had never seen another one like it until now.

To easily add some strengthening you could use 2 part epoxy resin. I like the idea of using old credit card, possibly a couple of pieces epoxied together!

And while it breaks in your key hole.....

what happens if it breaks in the lock
nabzaf in reply to josefu0Aug 13, 2008. 8:50 AM
ok if it breaks off just burn the lock. it was made out of wood. the people who make a copy for keys are the one who found your keys made the copy and now will follow you to your home and break in while you are out

Then your birthday disappears... forever!!
josefu0 in reply to nivaneusJul 22, 2008. 12:29 PM
no for real what happens if it breaks then how could i get it out
nivaneus in reply to josefu0Jul 22, 2008. 12:57 PM
Well you could probably get it out using a variety of different tools, if all else fails you can always take the lock apart to get it out. Sorry about my last comment i couldn't resist.
Kendallkip in reply to nivaneusAug 11, 2008. 7:55 AM
or call AAA

So this is for some sort of lock they stopped making sometime in the 17th century, or what? This sort of lock doesn't exist in the United States.
pindalanderz in reply to OneBadBirdAug 2, 2008. 8:00 PM
my dad's workplace has locks with those kind of keys. You are partially right though. they are very uncommon in the U.S. I never saw one until my dad got his current job.
LemonyPotatoes in reply to OneBadBirdJul 28, 2008. 3:39 PM
It's a Chinese lock. I have one on my door, only more shiny and new. It doesn't have the wheel, though. The lock is very good, as it has 2 deadbolts, and another lock at the top.
Kendallkip in reply to LemonyPotatoesAug 11, 2008. 7:54 AM
thats a hell of a lot of security!
bobt4 in reply to KendallkipJun 7, 2009. 7:14 PM

LemonyPotatoes in reply to bobt4Jun 8, 2009. 1:13 PM
Hey, you never know when someone's gonna steal your 52 inch LCD HD TV. ;)
freakyqwerty in reply to LemonyPotatoesNov 1, 2010. 10:05 AM
What are people gonna think when they see a man runing down the street with a 52" Tv in their arms? :P
bobt4 in reply to LemonyPotatoesJun 11, 2009. 11:14 AM
lol but i would just replace the door for a heavier 1 and add 2 or 3 not 4 or 5
LemonyPotatoes in reply to bobt4Nov 2, 2010. 6:41 AM
Well since I posted this comment Ive changed my door :\
still, 2 deadbolts can't hurt
bobt4 in reply to LemonyPotatoesNov 25, 2010. 5:23 PM

POPSICLE!
SeaLion says: Jun 27, 2008. 5:19 PM
Won't work with some locks that depends on the edge of the key, not the holes...
Batryn says: Jun 22, 2008. 3:08 PM
Is there a way to make a bump key without using a old key? Is it possible to use a popsicle stick?
mwagner63 says: May 16, 2008. 4:25 PM

mitul117 says: Feb 24, 2008. 3:38 PM
