(I've alwyas thought of repinning the one on this

XX2247 key :-)).
THAT would be an ideal pinning for it!
Anybody remember/save the actual pinning depths from that discussion?
(XX2247 is a "code number" that indexes into an array of actual
dimensions; XX2247 is NOT the depths of the cuts)
I am not sure if all 5170s were pinned alike or not
(something tells me
they weren't).
NO. I have encountered ones that would not "respond"
to keys from other
ones.
