Arkville Purchased three postal padlocks a while back and was able to find a key for the rotary lock and made a push key for the street letterbox lock, but have not been able to come up with a key for the small silver mail bag lock. Can someone here help me obtain a key for this? Thanks in advance.

Apparently uses a common “barrel” key like shown in the image: http://www.antiquesnavigator.com/ebay/images/2010/220595788647.jpg You will need to find a similar blank that might fit and modify to suit.

robotgoldfish From left to right, First i made patterns from steel bits. Then I cast the keys in Kirksite (a zinc alloy) using steel cores to create centered starter holes. Third is finishing the blanks, and finally filed into a working key. RG
