Sorry to hear you got the Heisman from the Key Men...good local
locksmiths are getting harder to find and even more expensive,
especially when they have to create keys from scratch. When I lived in
Minnesota, I just searched through the phone book until I found a local
guy in Shakopee that was willing to do it. Small town, old house, even
older van he worked out of. Did a great job cutting keys for my tool box
locks. Charged me $40...which I thought was too steep - but you don't
get much for $20 any more. Oh well, money spent is best forgotten and
his kids need to have shoes on their feet, too.

what they're for. We can cut keys, but no longer work with the locks

Kinda' snippy in tone. Guess I'll redouble my efforts to find a good
locksmith locally. Might help that I have blanks now. Cheers,
