Slightly bizar request, wanted to buy or trade
« on: April 14, 2007, 04:52:18 pm »
I know that most people would just throw this away if they only had one, so I figure it is worth asking.
I also know that I can buy a pair for very little money...

I am looking for a Coin Controls coin door lock #cc019.  I am a cheap bastard and I have one and the keys but I have an over/under door, so I need two.  I also figure it is better than adding another little but useful thing to a landfill.

If anybody around here happens to have a matching lock because you are a pack rat like myself and would like to sell it or give it or trade it with me let me know.  I have some joysticks from an NBA Jam, I have access to tools and plexi if you need a little for a CP or Marquee, I have the ability to custom build stuff, although I think that would require a little more than the lock in trade. 

Mostly I figured this is a silly request, but rather than me throw away my lock and 2 keys and somebody sit on a lock that they may not have keys for I thought I might as well ask.  What's the harm?  A little bandwidth and a nice place for somebody clever to come up with a good way to mock the request.

Thanks,
Brian

Sounds promising, I'll give that a shot if I find a similar lock, the keys look fairly standard as far as the grooves on the side go.

Use needle nose pliers to yank out all the brass tabs that aren't sitting flush with the assembly when your key is inserted.


Couldn't you use a dremmel to cut them flush as well...?

You could, but in home use, the lock is almost irrelevant anyway, so it's not really worth doing.

I was thinking he meant to pull the tab out and dremel off the bottom part, not the part with the tab that stops it from falling in.
