    Unhappy Broken Key

    Hi All, While moving home I made the basic mistake of leaving the key in the door of my Thunderbirds machine. Result, one broken key. I managed to open the door by getting my hand in up through the coin overflow hole in the bottom and using tweezers I got the broken part of the key out. This is a weird key it is flat and quite short with 7 round dimples machined in to it. Does anyone make/cut this type of key? Do I now have to try and replace the whole 4" long lock? I did see on Ebay, there was a lock supplier in the US selling full lock & key sets, but I am in London UK so I would like to know if anyone here can make new keys like this.

    Thanks Guys, any help you can suggest.
