Another review for Banggood.com, this time a tubular Lock cutting machine. Never seen something like this before and it’s such a cool thing to play with. Seems to work pretty well too. This says 7.3 mm, but I’m still using 7.8 mm key blanks (internal diameter); I’m not sure I made that clear in the review :-) There are also 4 different sizes to meet your needs :-)
Lock Noob sorry lock noob to repeat what you have said but are you saying the one you demonstrated was a 7.3 and you used a 7.8 blank so I I wanted to cut a standard blank I would need to order the 7.3 version
We did a you tube 1st on this tool many years ago video deleted since our new channel, It’s a great tool glad to see it back in action & available it disappeared for a few years but seems to be back ! The decoder key can be hit or miss ! I’ve never seen one in a 7.3mm as that is very small Hopefully BG mean it’s a 7.8mm making it perfect for the average tubular Lock you see around There are 3 versions on this tool 7.00mm 7.5mm & 7.8mm 7.3 there is a misprint somewhere surly 😀 Great for decoding locks when picked with the tubular pick & making keys Cool vid thanks 👍
UK Lockpickers thing is, .5 mm for a key blank I’m not sure makes a difference in the cutter if you see how it works; it would do in the lock though... maybe I’m wrong, but these are 7.8mm blanks and it seems to work fine. I guess I should have got he 7,8 mm version but I wasn’t thinking when I asked for it :-)
I have absolutely no use for this tool but great tutorial/review and I like how it not only seems pretty straight forward but does it without power. The measuring seems a bit fiddly though.
Excellent Tool. All that needs to be done is add an Index mark above Center of the word "KLOM", will will also be in line with other Index. Then Fix the Numbers, Where it has a 6, change to a 1, change the 5 to a 2, change 4 to a 3, 3 to a 4, 2 to a 5, 1 to a 6, and where it says zero, make it a 7. Then it would be Perfect. Can Live with it, May just wrap white around above the numbers, with the corrected numbers, ignore that, wrap over the numbers, leave existing marks. That all I see it needs, Great Value. I have the 7.8. If they sent me the other 2, would gladly accept. Nice work.
Very cool tool, it is a lot like the "Herty Gerty" tubular key cutter. But the HG cost over £300 but is better made. But the amount of use is key to needing the expensive one instead of this kind. I myself thank you for the review and I plan on taking advantage of the discount!!! Thanks again for the review Top notch job!!
Great video and demonstration. It looks like that is a Klom key cutter. I didn't notice it on the first viewing, but I saw Klom on the decoder key and see them sold on eBay for about $60 USD. I also found quite a few listings for tubular key blanks, one listing has 50 for like $25 that appear to have the time portion made of brass!
Awesome key cutter and demonstration Ash :), that worked pretty nice. I think it's a bit overshoot for a hobby user 😜, but certainly worth for a professional :). The only other key cutter I heared of was the gerty... ;D. Not sure if 7.3mm is the right size...someone recently told me that 7.8mm locks would be common hmmm ?...and there are 4 versions. Anyway a pretty cool tool :). Thank you for sharing buddy 👍😃🦊.
That's confusing 🙄 haha. I noticed that the cuts were smaller than on the original key, so maybe it had to do with this, as there are 4 models availiable. But if it works even with the smaller model, that is fine :).
redcatimaging yes, cuts are smaller but I have another key I cut where they are larger... I think it’s because .5mm for a key blank is at manufacturing tolerance anyway? Certainly, the bigger the blank diameter, the _bigger_ the cuts should be since more of the key would be exposed to the cutter. :-) I wish I’d got the 7.8mm cuter instead but I didn’t know it was there...
I think I need one of these too. Actually that's complete bollocks, I have no need at all for one of these gizmos. Never picked this type of lock, don't even have that type of pick. I just really fancy having a bash at cutting a key.
I have a tremendous amount of picking and key cutting equipment, most of which I will never use. BUT, if I ever need it, by gosh I have it! ;-) I bought this the day this vid came out and received it in 3 weeks. Not bad timing for a trip from China!
Curious if you haven't got the key how would you go about knowing what depth numbers and what position one etc ? So you can cut say a new one. If that makes sense
Cheers LN I was waiting for either you or Bill to review this before I made a decision on whether to pick one up or not. Looks pretty good for the money.
See 5:23 :-) unfortunately I have no way of telling how durable it will be, I guess you’d have to use it a lot more than I’m able to do to tell. I found it hard enough to source 4-5 key blanks
Rune International work the machine in a clock wise direction like locknoob was doing .. keep turning it towards the right Not right & left ! Or you will decrease the machines life / blade
It’s a very hard question to answer, genuinely. Most locks of this tripe are either 7.5 or 7.8 but without you measuring the internal diameter of your keys with a micrometer/calliper, I couldn’t tell you which one to go for, sorry :-)
How you get on sourcing blanks Noob, I would have thought Brass would be better for the life of the cutter but looking at Blank prices, seems a bit expensive for a little key
OK, as mentioned, I find them on ebay/amazon quite expensive, can get a pack of 10 from China cheap but not too sure if they`re any good or will even fit, seen other vids stating that I should buy the Silca ones ?
I picked up the K-747 and it needed the position knob and the cutter depth adjusted but it worked great after that. I could not find any replacement cutter blades for it anywhere though so only brass keys.
Horrible experience from banggood they only send the proper stuff to the people that do the reviews because they give it to them for free to do the review so if you're going to order something from there don't be surprised if it's a lower grade or not it at all and shipping fees and the long wait to get your money back if you get your money back.

That's a pretty nifty little machine. Cheers for showing us how it works. As you say at first glance it looks really complicated.
It took a while to figure out, but it makes sense once you get it :-)
That's quite complicated, but then you made it look really simple. Thank you for the review.
Thank you :-)
I had one of these in 2012 never got round to using it. Great video nice to see this tool working....
Thanks :-)
Very nice review. I particularly appreciated your showing how to use the depth gauge. Thank you for doing this!
Thanks 🙏
excellent machine! gotta say there are some amazing inventors out there!thanks for showing!
Thanks :-)

Just to add you really want this size ... / 7.8mm Manipulation Tubular Computerized Key Cutting Machine Cutters Portable Plum Key Copierbanggood.app.link/jnYmM2NlZK
£49.00
Hope this helps 😀👍
UK Lockpickers I’m using 7.8 mm internal diameter key blanks, the most common ones :-) still works OK for me :-)
Lock Noob bang good advertise a 7.3 mm £41 & a 7.8mm £49 & there both the same Tool , hmmm confused 😶
Anyway ... Good vid pleased to see more of this

Lock Noob obviously makes no difference 👍 & can save £8 ✅

Had to look that tool up... looks great! Very expensive though! :-)
@@LockNoob And very unavailable now that A1 is out of business, too 😭
hi thankyou just need to get a cutter and a key reader plus blanks
Great video and demonstration. It looks like that is a Klom key cutter. I didn't notice it on the first viewing, but I saw Klom on the decoder key and see them sold on eBay for about $60 USD.

Thanks for demonstrating that. I had no idea how that beasty worked.
Thanks :-)
I have seen it but wasn't sure how it all worked. Cheers.🍺😎
It took me a while to figure it out myself, lol :-)
Really interesting tool and a great review. Thanks for your detailed commentary and demonstration.
Thanks Dirk :-)
Tôi muốn có một bộ dụng cụ như vậy.

Thanks Noob! Much less expensive than the Herty Gerty!
But not as cool a name :-)
Very nice review my friend I'm going to buy one maybe all 3.thanks for sharing. 😎
Thanks for watching :-)
I think I need one of these too.
Actually that's complete bollocks, I have no need at all for one of these gizmos. Never picked this type of lock, don't even have that type of pick. I just really fancy having a bash at cutting a key.
unclear steve yup, and that’s why I have no money :-)
Lock Noob if I spent three hundred notes on one of those bad boys, there's a good chance my wife would jam it firmly up my tubular keyhole.
Lol
I have a tremendous amount of picking and key cutting equipment, most of which I will never use. BUT, if I ever need it, by gosh I have it! ;-) I bought this the day this vid came out and received it in 3 weeks. Not bad timing for a trip from China!
interesting tool.
Thanks.
maybe show in combination with the bangood decoder / picker?
R. Akers already on it :-)
Very cool demo!
Thanks :-)
Great bit of kit looks nice, I'll have to look into it.
Check out the different sizes they do :-)
That looks good, I assume it can cut 6 pinner or 7 Pinner tubular locks, I only have a couple of them?
I only think 7 pin due to the pin spacing. I could be wrong though :-)
Looks and seems like a cool bit of kit... nice review Lock Noob 👍👍
Thank :-)
Curious if you haven't got the key how would you go about knowing what depth numbers and what position one etc ? So you can cut say a new one. If that makes sense
Excellent review as always! Thank you for the info. Have a great day!
Thanks, and you too :-)
Cheers LN I was waiting for either you or Bill to review this before I made a decision on whether to pick one up or not. Looks pretty good for the money.
Check out the other sizes they make :-)
very interesting tool. interesting video. i enjoyed watching. thanks for sharing
Thank you :-)
Thats a cool little machine 👍
Thank you :+)
Hi thanks for the video I have been thinking of buying one how many tubular keys have you cut with this cutter
Only a handful. I don’t really need to cut many in day-to-day life :-)
Ive seen a couple of these very nice bit of kit my friend😊😊👍👍😊😎😎😎
Thanks, it’s fun to play around with :-)
Nice, I think I need one! How durable is the cutter? I couldn’t see it in the video. Thanks
See 5:23 :-) unfortunately I have no way of telling how durable it will be, I guess you’d have to use it a lot more than I’m able to do to tell. I found it hard enough to source 4-5 key blanks
Lock Noob Think as long as you get real brass blanks, it will work forever. Keep it out of strange china blanks with unknown hardness.
Rune International work the machine in a clock wise direction like locknoob was doing .. keep turning it towards the right
Not right & left ! Or you will decrease the machines life / blade
UK Lockpickers and rotate it multible times at lower force, to let it slowly eat away, instead of forcing a 7cut with a 90 degree twist
Rune International lol, I can imagine someone trying that :-)
Really cool tool & a great review/demonstration
Thank you :-)
QUESTION that is a 7.3mm according to your link so do you recommend the 7.3mm or the 7.8mm because I definitely want to get one, THANKS AGAIN......
It’s a very hard question to answer, genuinely. Most locks of this tripe are either 7.5 or 7.8 but without you measuring the internal diameter of your keys with a micrometer/calliper, I couldn’t tell you which one to go for, sorry :-)
Nice tool.
Thanks :-)
nice review I have been thinking about getting one but they have be out.
Out already huh, I’m sure they’ll restock soon :-)
+Lock Noob : Yes they are on reorder, or you can pre order ...they have the best price right now.
How you get on sourcing blanks Noob, I would have thought Brass would be better for the life of the cutter but looking at Blank prices, seems a bit expensive for a little key
I think this is a chrome coated brass blank looking at the colour underneath when cut. I have a friendly local locksmith for the blanks :-)
OK, as mentioned, I find them on ebay/amazon quite expensive, can get a pack of 10 from China cheap but not too sure if they`re any good or will even fit, seen other vids stating that I should buy the Silca ones ?
Sent you a pm on our mutual site mate :)
Very 😎😎😎 tool there.
Thanks for sharing😘😘😘👍
Thanks PB :-)
Funny....I bought one through Banggood and when I received it the name had been removed from cutter and box. Wonder what is up with that?
Takeover of a company I would guess, but I don’t know :-)
Very cool tool buddy, looks very fun to use, thanks for showing, I really enjoy that ;o))
Thank you Tallan :-)
is there any adjustments for the the amount of pins?, 7,8 & 10 pin tubular locks out there.
No sadly not. Fun tool though
Would you know where to get the cutting bit for the Klom k-747. I can not find a bit .
hi how do tubular lock picks work on lift hand and right hand offsets
Hi; I’m not sure I understand, could you expand?
Doesn’t look like you can change the bit. How long did this last?
I don’t use it a lot to be fair
But you counted the thing clock wise?????
I picked up the K-747 and it needed the position knob and the cutter depth adjusted but it worked great after that. I could not find any replacement cutter blades for it anywhere though so only brass keys.
How does one become a reviewer for Banggood.com?
hi the pins of offset to cut key how do you read the code
You read the depth number using the tool provided :-)
Which type of blank keys do you use, could you post a link where to buy them from?.
Thanks.
I get them from a key cutter I know
@@LockNoob Could you please let me know what type of key you use so i can try hunt one down?, i need the 7.5mm ones.
Thanks.
Horrible experience from banggood they only send the proper stuff to the people that do the reviews because they give it to them for free to do the review so if you're going to order something from there don't be surprised if it's a lower grade or not it at all and shipping fees and the long wait to get your money back if you get your money back.
You are going backwards go counterclockwise to make cuts
Ohhhh, I WANT ONE, LOL
👍👍👍
Thanks Lock Noob
Thanks :-)
🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩
So you could use the huk tubular lock pick to decode and re cut a new lock?
