Curtis #14 key cutter

You guys have me salivating. Long story but I started my own "locksmithing" company (more just lockout company) back in the 90's while in college. I have my original A invoice and it has the key code on it. I am missing the original popout but was hoping to rekey one at some point to the original code. I have the original keys somewhere in my collection as well but figured I would just cut a new one. Good to know the data for the cuts and the blanks seem to be available. I could manually cut mine on my machine that i kept if need be...

a project for another day.
 
I have a model 14 with the wheel like your picture, BS is on the wheel in two locations and the spacing is different. I still need the BS carriage.

The BS by the holes is for the depths and the BS beside the tapered slot is for the built in Briggs & Stratton key cut depth gauge.


Here are a couple of pages for the Model 14 that list the different dial and carriage combinations and a list of carriage applications.....


The two entries in the second picture that are smudged are "Early" Hurd locks and "Late" Hurd locks.
