key no.2
Mannmaan opened this issue · 5 comments
Recently the stupid TSA "unlock" my luggage in Orlando and did not turn to "Lock" position after they check my Tumi Luggage that happen to have TSA0002 key on the locking system.
so in my search for the key, i came across this article and did 3D printed TSA0002 with the file provided.
but im facing a problem, the key doesn't even fit in the insert. please advise or can someone send other link.
thanks
The 2 key is generally known to work, so there's a good chance the issue is in the printer calibration.
Is the key too wide, or too thick? If it's too thick I'd start by trying to sand the top side down a bit untill it fits. If it's too wide, you should measure it with calipers to see how far off it is compared to the target dimensions.
You can also try scaling down the problem dimension in your slicer. For example if the keys are coming out too thick, you might try setting the Z scale to .98 - .95.
thanks for your advise, it appear to be too wide. i will try to scale down.
Thanks Johnnyxmas. plastic expedition due to environmental make a lot of sense since i live in Jakarta Indonesia. it very very hot and high humidity down here.
