Master lock no 81 key dimensions

I have an old master lock no 81 with no key, I can easily pick it, but would like to use it for practice making a bump key, I am going to hand file the key but I have no idea what dimensions to use between pins or how deep to make the cuts and I haven't been able to find too much info on the key dimensions online

Re: Master lock no 81 key dimensions

What's the depth of the deepest cut? Do you know where I can find this info for other locks?
