Andrei, I'm curious how you go about re-keying those locks. I took a jammed-up one apart and realized it was useless trying to put it back together. What killed this lock was using a key copy that was just good enough to work. This caused some of the wafers to stick out too far. Over time this scored the barrel making a mess of it. Apparently what made it stick (so a key wouldn't go back in) was from a wafer digging into one of the grooves and getting stuck there. I think that this part of the lock is easily fixable by boring the cylinder bigger and then pressing in a brass sleeve. But then there is the issue with keeping the cylinder together. The pin is held in with tiny teeth that break off because they are made of cheap pot metal. How can this be fixed? Drill some holes so a new longer pin can slide in? I spend too much time thinking about silly things like that. :-) Walt ------------------------ Yahoo!
