Quick question. After I have impressioned a key will it duplicate in a machine proper?
Hand filed to machine cut.

No not always, sometimes you will need to file the machine-made copy a bit

Once Impressioned, you could use a Depth Gauge, then have Keys Cut With a Code Machine and will look Factory?

Thank you. I do have an eye on, and a request out for a code machine in the buy, sell and trade thread.
