Ok, so Ive got a couple of machines that are locked up with no key. Can't find them on Funtronics site. What have you guys done to get these opened? Simply call a locksmith?

I have never had to do it but everyone sez drilling it is the best and cheapest route. Then you have to get a whole new lock and key. Someone else will chime in about how to do this or maybe there is a previous post.
Good luck!!

I driil them out.
A locksmith costs 35.00-50.00. A new lock is like 15.00

I drag the machine to my local locksmith. He pics the lock and makes me 1 key for $15, or 2 keys for $18.

Good Deal... the local guy here quoted me $30 each for 4 locks if I dropped the locks off to him!!
