A Lifehacker Australia reader writes in with a tale of woe involving forgotten car keys, but with a surprising ending involving a laptop and a helpful locksmith.
Basically, Mark's overseas girlfriend, who had his car keys, sent him a scanned picture of the lost keys in question. Since standard keys are often made with just a series of bump/depth numbers, a patient, helpful locksmith with a bit of savvy was able to cut him a new set.
It might not fly with some locksmiths, but if you know a good one, or have the time to avoid a hefty on-site visit, it's worth keeping in mind—and maybe worth keeping a few pics in an accessible place online.
