Eindelijk.

Na meer dan een jaar research verschijnt Sander Terbrugge’s
slagsleutel artikel in het technologietijdschrift ‘de ingenieur‘.

 

Lees een voorproefje van: “Sloten en het gemak van inbreken”

In Europe lots of locksmiths use computerized key cutting machines, or
machines to make one on one copies. I am currently visiting the US and
find that most locksmiths can not live without their mechanical key
punch machine. This machine mechanically makes code cut keys instead
of one on one copies. The design of the machine is nice. It is very
easy to operate and from what I have heard and seen the device is very
accurate and fast.

 

I just had to shoot some video of a friendly locksmith who was kind
enough to demonstrate his ‘Blue Punch key machine’ for you and me.

It’s not fair.

I have spent many hours fighting PhotoShop before I came up with a half decent logo.

And it only took Eric less then 45 minutes to make something that was much, much better.

Thanks Eric!

And I owe a big ‘Thank You’ to Elisa for setting up this weblog.

Thanks Elisa!

Han Fey finished yet another article for the toool website.

This time he wrote about a special and exotic lock, the Drumm Geminy shield.

 

This lock actually is protecting the original lock in the door against
vandalism. It’s a very clever design and the article is well worth the read.

Han always spends a lot of time writing his articles and I am sure you
will enjoy it.
