TSA003 key oversized #32

Open mtfurlan opened 2 years ago

mtfurlan commented 2 years ago

I found some TSA003 locks.

This keyway seems to be a lot smaller than the key in the repo keyway

I cut it down the key in the repo, and it did work. Final key width: 0.7-0.8mm working key I do have to lift the key a little bit to make it work because I shaved too much off the bottom, I don't really have a good way to measure how much I have to lift it though my guess is 0.5mm

I made a new key with a freecad sketch, based on a rectified image of the TSA003 key combined with my measurements on the "working" key. I'm not good at cad yet, so I didn't try to edit the 3d IGS files or do the fancy handle with the number.

I don't expect this to be mergable right now. (hence the draft PR) I just dropped the new files in the repo root, so please either tell me what you want or please feel free to edit till it's good. I suspect the best thing is that if you trust my dimensions just re-create it in whatever cad the rest of them were made with.

Oh also I'm willing to ship anyone who wants to work on this a lock. At least to anywhere in the US, and probably elsewhere depending on cost.

Thanks for the pull, i'm trying to find a tsa003 lock since this to try this out, but so far i haven't been able to find one, would you recommend a model?

mtfurlan commented 2 years ago

I got mine from a friend buying some used lockers, so I can't help with buying one. I'm happy to ship you one of the two I got though.

@Xyl2k Any luck finding one? I'm still willing to ship you one.
