Why Such a Big Cutter
The bigger the cutter the less noticeable the radius is in the pin seat area of the duplicated key.
Why Such an Unusual Vise Jaw Design
Simple – we built these vise jaws in a way that resembles a machine shop milling machine vise. No milling ma-
chine vises uses a pivoting action jaw - parts would be flying out all the time! With a pivoting action jaw you only
have one theoretical size thickness that will clamp properly.
Why Make the Bottom Jaw Move Instead of the Top Jaw Like all the Other Machines
We wanted the movable vise jaw attached to a very large diameter, very long piston to keep movable jaw from
tipping. We wanted a vise jaw design that would clamp straight all the time . . . period. The only place with
enough room to do it was below the vise jaws and in the carriage.
Why Didn’t We Use Gears to Drive the Carriage Left and Right
Gears are pumps – on a key machine they pump dirt and key cuttings. Gears get crunchy - our linkages do
not!
Why Aren’t the Vise Jaws Hardened
Simple - miss-adjust your key machine and waste the cutter. Our vise jaws are made from machine able steel
so you won’t ruin your cutter if you make a mistake. The vise jaws last a long time anyway and when you re-
place them you are not required to replace them in sets - buy only what you need at the time.
Why Not Use a Less Expensive Motor and Save Money
Our “stick-shift” machine is the fastest machine you can own - you need a lot of power to keep that big cutter
going when you “wail” through a key. Low cost motors either won’t have the power you will need or they won’t
work efficiently on a Redi-Line® power generator in your service truck or van. Your machine is equipped with
the most powerful motor you can get and it works well on a Redi-Line® generator.
Why is the Machine As Big As It Is, You Could Make is Smaller
The machine is built big, and strong, and rigid – It Is Built To Last.
