Growster Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 The enclosed pic is for a Brabantia key, for a mailbox. A customer emailed it yesterday. I only publish it here, because the idea the customer had with the imprint of the profile in BlueTack seems really clever to me. Then again, I'm easily impressed. I would make that on a Silca LF23R as 9032. Any disagreement with that? Hv a gr8 day! Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then again, I'm easily impressed. Excellent! I've tried a couple of times to take a profile image for a key I'm stumped on for posting to the forum, this makes sense! has to be the suggestion of the year & one hopefully members will take up!

kirkybob Posted December 13, 2009 Report Share Posted December 13, 2009 Ive used blutack since i started key cutting, poss problems are that it distorts slightly as it sticks to key, also shrinks therby closing impression slightly. A better solution is silly putty dont laugh it has better properties re shrinking etc and is used by some engineeres to impress profiles. but seems to be hard to find other then the internet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
