Growster Posted November 19, 2022 Report Share Posted November 19, 2022 I have started to experimentally make these from photos, and, oh dear, it is fraught. A comparatively high failure makes the successful decodes relatively expensive. The blanks are already £3.50 each. Here I have one I made that didn't work. The client then sent his original, but I am finding it hard to copy this with the Lancer, as the blanks do not clamp identically in the 2 jaws. Due to the unusual shoulder, making these with the Keyline mortice machine is also rather awkward. I would welcome a little chat here about this.

grahamparker Posted November 23, 2022 Report Share Posted November 23, 2022 There are some on Flebay. I used to have some of both blanks but cannot locate them so may have used them all up. Growster 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
