I have been watching ebay for a year or so looking for a VDI30 rectangular blank for a reasonable price. Got fed up so decided to get one from Cutwel as they had them a bit cheaper than normal but it was still about £110. Then what appears on ebay a week later, some blinking VDI30 blanks, made an offer on 2 and got them for slightly less than the one from Cutwel cost me. Now all I need to do is wait until someone has a Capto C4 extension on ebay cheap and I will be able to make up another couple of VDI to Capto adapters.

Pic of the blanks.

Pic of what they will hopefully be turned into one day

I am going with 6 foot, at 4 foot it looks to narrow to me.

That's what I am hoping! If so a nice bargain. Just wish it was a box pan one but they never go cheap.

Oh goodie , I can make a copy key from that picture .

a few years ago a man i know that worked as a lock smith in Wolverhampton was telling me about a company that had a new safe and they had a press picture taken holding the keys and he managed to make a quick copy from the picture when they lost the keys.
