    This works, I used this method to open a set of Smith & Wesson model 94 High Security handcuffs. What I did was heat up the back of a white plastic Bic pen and bottom it out in the lock. This makes the impression. I then transferred the impression onto an aluminum arrow of the same diameter. a few snips and a small file & I made a working key. I then was able to get the correct keys from a magic shop. I had 3 sets of these cuffs and each had a different key.

    The next time you replace your wiper blades, save the 2 metal strips that hold the rubber to the blade, they make perfect picks and tension bars, you can try grinding different profiles on the picks and make the tension bar by bending the strip 90*.

    I called Homack with the number on my locks and had new keys within a few days. Cost was around $30 for two keys. Somebody gave me the safe because they lost the key.
