(48) Key Machine Chronicles #6 - Lishi Clipper and the Schlage 3d printed adapter revelation

[@IsaacHashman]

What a rip off... I came for an autograph! At least I'm a part of the team though :D On a serious note, awesome vid showcasing this product, and thank you for sharing your knowledge/experience with us! On another note, what has worked for me was using a depth gage to get close to the exact cut depths, then filing to touch up the last bit. But with the depth gage card, I find it makes it a lot easier taking away a bunch of extra time figuring out what is off

[@Chirael]

Great review, thank you for doing this! The tips about using a scribe instead of a marker, and turning the key away from you as you cut to make the cut flatter, are great 🙏😊

Always trying to detail my processes

[@DoctorHogmaster]

I found that there was just enough play in the way the plastic pieces fit onto the cutter that if you’re not super careful you’ll be off by roughly one number here and there. What I found helped was to check my cuts against a key decoder, to make sure I had things lined up perfectly. If it doesn’t match the key decoder, either a file or re-cutting more meticulously works out (in my limited tests). Great video!

[@RubberBanned]

There's some fine tuning to be done, for sure, but that's the nature of invention. :) These are still a solid piece of kit for the money. Unfortunately, I think it will take some time before something truly accurate comes along.

[@kewltune4683]

Nice review! Thank you for the detailed demonstration!

[@brianfield58]

Great video, I thought about getting the guide set but they are currently out. I think 3D locksport is making more for Deviant. Take care and have a great day. 👍🔐

[@carllewis2207]

I would be very interested in trying this kit, more so for Kwikset. Great video, thanks for sharing!

[@RubberBanned]

I imagine those are in the works!

[@DeviantOllam]

We PROMISE these will be back in stock soon, hah!

[@TonyVirelli]

My printers are crying.... but I tell them to suck it up! LOL

[@marqueA2]

Any hope for these coming back in stock soon? (March 2024)

[@PocketWomen]

Great tips on using this tool. Thanks for this video, cheers

Nice solving of the 9-cut pickle :)

[@DonzLockz]

Great demo buddy. Yes I want your autograph! :) I will check out the website when I got some money cause I can't help myself. Lol

[@kendra4890]

Honestly think you could be a college professor with the way you break things down. You sound like my old science teacher. :)

[@odinslockllc]

Great video. Thanks for sharing!

[@septclues]

loving the content, man! really interesting stuff :)

[@FulcanelliRosetta]

Awesome video bud! May I ask what is that other crows bill took you mentioned?

[@HVLogic]

Team RubberBanned! But seriously that was a good review.

[@DarkArtsLockPicking]

Good points bro. 👍🤘🖖🍻

[@anthonyrichardson8770]

There is a Mexican Locksmith who made the sliders for the keys. Imo its faster and easier because you can cut in steps and multiples.

[@zadhy]

Whre to find it

[@danareed1656]

great info although i dont think you put presser on the key when you cut the 9 like you did with the other ones, could that of made the difference!

[@RubberBanned]

I was trying to make the deep cut as uniform as possible, but it’s worth it to try again!

[@danareed1656]

@@RubberBanned cool im trying to learn and iv got a cutter coming but i have not bought the adapters but may have to!

[@RubberBanned]

@@danareed1656 They're definitely worth it!

I also made a video on the RTT Schlage Cutter Guides. I have a weird problem with my (probably knockoff) lishi cutter that the guides are off by 1, i.e. if I want a 3 cut I need to use the 4 guide. Also reading on RTT they suggest using a 0-bitted key blank as they say it's nearly impossible to get a 0 cut on the lishi cutter. This might explain your 9 guide problem... if you had a 0-bitted "blank" then maybe it wouldn't hit the back plate of the cutter (if 8 fits on the null(?) bitted, then a 0 bitted would fit for the 9)... Overall I think they are fun little tool, I enjoyed it. Where can you get 0 bitted key blanks? Well from RTT of course ;-).

[@RubberBanned]

Fun bit of info, I make RTT 0 cut keys for them. ;) I don't think a 0 cut key would have resolved this issue, as even cutting the cuts near the 9 down to 4 didn't help. I think there's just a little bit of tolerance problems for now, might be able to resolve them somehow.

[@JonLock]

@@RubberBanned ah cool!

[@Masamonae]

Great video, but tbh you clearly got early access considering they were sold out within the hour of them going live for sale. Again, great video though. Love your keysets too btw.

[@RubberBanned]

I did have one reserved for me, for the purpose of field tesing, as both Deviant, and 3D locksport are friends and business associates of mine. :)

[@Phred_Phlintstoner]

Not that it matters much, but the numbering system you use is off. This is the second number (47) on your list. Anyway, I love my lishi clippers. One of the locksport youtubers (Jon's locks I think, but I'll change this if I'm wrong) is making files on thingiverse for these clip on style gages for several different keyways. I'd recommend checking it out! I may have to recommend he makes a scribe one as well!

[@proxlock6526]

Love how they took my idea and made it a little different, but then they almost copy all they way to make them exactly like mine. Way to go to the developer 😂😂

[@RubberBanned]

Don’t shoot the messenger!

[@proxlock6526]

@@RubberBanned Not you buddy, you just trying them. Want to try the real thing? I can send you some of my sets in stock for you to try 😉

Can you make a control key?

[@RubberBanned]

Sure, with further blank modification

[@DoctorHogmaster]

Yup as long as you start with a control blank. I’ve done it.

Salve come acquistare il tutto e quanto costa?

[@RubberBanned]

Hello, you can find the guides on www.redteamtools.com for 50.00 USD, and they also have the clippers there as well. If you’re outside of the USA, Schlage guides such as these won’t be a great help.

[@kendra4890]
