Handcuffs? Is a key possible?

The keys will most likely be impossible to impression, so I've been told. Keys are difficult to replicate by hand as well.

i've copied several keys by hand. its not that hard. so long as i have a vice/clamp, lighter, sewing needle, file and the keyblank.

Keys are easy to copy by hand, have you copied a Chubb AVA key though? They have to be a very accurate copy to actually open the lock.

tell him to send them to me, i can impression a key... after i figure out how... it shouldnt be hard once you apply tension... you must apply tension first then the wafers will bind on the key...

ooo id need blanks too lol

Yeah we don't have any of those blanks here. I don't know to what lengths this guy would go to get a key for it either. He was thrilled just to find out as much as you guys here have told me about them.

If you can get the key blank I'd try to impression using a ward file (flat file) and I would melt wax onto the key blank to see were to file. Did the wax method when I was impressioning a bit key for a old style mortise lock I had.
