Hi
I found that just taking the lock to a locksmith and $15 was
just as good. I did this for the lock on my Nicolet 1080 that
was connected to the powerswitch.
He made two keys for this price.

Or real madmen with a lathe/mill and a dividing
head can machine it
themselves from metal tubing ;-)
My brother is a locksmith... he machined himself a 7-position tubular
_lockpick_... 7 feelers and a restriction collet - you sort of twist
and press in a particular motion, and the feelers eventually (60
seconds?) slide to the right positions to open the lock. One thing
that's cooler than picking an ordinary pin-tumbler lock is that you
can take the tubular lock pick to a tubular key cutter and make a
"real" key from it.
