Supplying the new blank didn't stop our local one charging  :huh: he managed to fook it up though and as it was our blank there was no come back  :sad:

A mate bought one ready cut off Ebay the week before last Rich, he just sent a digital photo of an old key and they cut it from that  :shocked: perfect fit as well  :wink:

He did say to me that the flip keys can sometimes jump out of the machine and are cut at your own risk -  which is another reason he gave for not charging anything.  :smiley:

The tool (not the machine  :wink:) that cut my mates blade managed to cut through the center of the blade so there was a hole in it, not sure if this was on purpose or not as it wasn't his blade  :undecided:

Or am I being paranoid  :huh:
