This is a how-to video explaining how to copy a key with a can of cola. All you need is an aluminum soda or beer can. To make it come out better, add a additional side to the one piece. This technique works well when you don't have time to get a new key cut. Watch this video tutorial and learn how to duplicate a key with a Coke can.

the turning piece is called a torque wrench, you can use a flat head screw driver for that

2 layers might not be sufficient enough, i would recommend 3 layers or even 4...think about the thickness of the original key, it is at least as thick as 3 or four layers....

if you look at the video at the end where he use's the key, it looks like the normal key with a round bit of coke can stuck to the end

Nice. Personally more work than a $1 is worth.

But for backup keys for serialized keys (Master lock, ...) that can't be copied legally by a locksmith, this is an excellent alternative.

A small screwdriver could assist in providing the torque needed to turn stubborn locks.

I would probably make the folds first and then use an Exacto knife to cut the tumbler lands afterwards. There are only 0.023" difference between each of 6 tumbler locations.

To accurately cut these surfaces with scissors or a knife would be time consuming.

The copy would just move the pins above the shear line. Then you could use a screwdriver or something hard and small to turn the tumbler. [for all you complainers of weak turning ability]

There is a great how to make a bump key video on WHT, that might be a more successful route to take; I wouldn't mind keeping one of those on my keyring.

i wonder if a thicker can like a slimfast can would work better

if u use a thicker can then it will be harder to cut out and also shape the ridges in the can.
