Zeke, could I send you a couple of locks to make into cutaways? How much would it cost?
Ezer, I choose to rephrase that and say, "Poor Noah, he (I) didn't even have a chance."

N2oah,
I prefer to not start cutting on locks I do not own. The reason is if I screw up I have to replace the lock and that could get very expensive. Right now if I have a few extras laying around to cut on and mess one up then it's ok, but I cannot have a mistake costing me $60-$100 to replace a high security cylinder.

I saw that one on eBay, too. How much did it set you back? I saw the starting price was $99.
Right now I'm finishing up my Garrison Cutaway cylinder, an Arfe cylinder, and Mul-t-Lock knockoff cylinder. The Mul-t-Lock cutaway I made is up for sale in the Buy-Sell-Trade forum.  "Lockpicking is what robbing is all about!" says Jim King.

It couldn't have been more than that Primus cutaway....
Most of you have seen these already, but:
ASSA Cutaway Kit
Primus Cutaway Kit
And the S&G Padlock Cutaway"Lockpicking is what robbing is all about!" says Jim King.

Hey, I feel for you Ezer. I wanted both of them about the same. I have a soft spot for the primus as that is a great lock, but I am trying to make a cutaway of the ASSA so it would have been great to have that too.

Well at least I don't feel bad about that S&G cutaway. Those other 2 bidders definitely wanted it more than me.
