3D TSA "Travel Sentry" master keys

Recently, pictures of TSA master baggage keys got leaked by the Washington Post and also PDFs hosted on TravelSentry's Website. This repo is a reproduction attempt

Security researchers have long warned of the dangers of using master-keyed locks

The TSA has issued an official statement making it known that they don't even care that we've done this, as the now-pointless locks affect theft prevention, not airline safety.

[!] Important: These keys have not been widely-tested, though we do have reports that many do work from at least one source. 006 May never work, as we're not sure of the depth of the "dimples," and also consumer-grade 3D printers may not be up to such finely-detailed tasks.

Added the stubby versions of the keys by MS3FGX, which appear to still work fine !

Thanks:

  • Special thanks to @darksim905 and @irongeek_adc and some anonymous others who all sent us images and information surrounding these keys. Also, @j0hnnyXm4s for his key size ratios and issue management / advice.

PROBLEM REPORTING

If you print a key and it doesn't work:

* First, use a caliper or other highly-accurate device to make sure the key you printed is accurate to the model. Humidity, expansion & ambient room temperature can have serious effects on print size accuracy.

* If it IS accurate, open an issue on the github, specify the problem file, and what problems exist (i.e. "Too wide for the keyway," "Too tall for the keyway," etc.).

* Upload a picture of your lock's keyway. 

* If you have the original keys for the lock, provide a measurement of the key from shoulder to tip, total height of the shoulders, and width. (i.e. X, Y & Z axes of the blade). Some keys only have one shoulder.
