You can use the search button in the upper right hand corner of your screen to look for old posts about Bumping. There are many posts on this subject. As for getting key blanks, you can get them offline, or sometimes from locksmiths, though some don't like to sell the blanks.
hope this helps,
Nick

Not wanting to get into this again, the blanks can be had from your local hardware, walmart or anywhere they sell those personalized keys with printing on it with fire or stars and stripes. those are for KW1 and Schlage. you just get it and say something like "I'm getting this for a gift and would like them to be able to have it cut to their house."

You can get bump keys from a lot of places I bought mine from www.ukbumpkeys.com and they were reasonable priced and work fine. I'm not sure if you're in America, if so you don;t want the UK bump keys you probably want to get some from one of the many US sites, just google it.
