making key.
 
I got a blank key but can't find the place who can cut it for me. Before I thought as long as I have the blank key, they can just coppy the cuts from the original key but I was wrong. The nwe machine now aday need a cassette and most places are using it now instead of the older machine.
Does anyone here in OC,SCal, know any particular place can cut it?
Thanks.

Any OSH has the system where they just copy your old key.

I have even had keys broken in half that I superglued together that they duplicated for me.

Try a real locksmith that you may find in your local yellow pages. My real lock smith had no trouble.

I just had one made at Loews ( for FREE!!). They tried a bunch of cassettes and finally found one that worked...

I had the same problem. Could not seem to find anyone with the old key cutting machine. Ended up just doing it myself with a couple of small jewlers files.

Later thought about the flea market guy's with the old machines. Perhaps they could do it.

It wasn't that tough , took about two minutes, he just jammed the blank into the holes until he found one that fit then grabbed to corresponding cassette.

Thanks.
