Security researchers have [long warned](http://www.crypto.com/masterkey.html) of the dangers of using [master-keyed locks](https://twitter.com/J0hnnyXm4s/status/642123709311008768)

The TSA has issued an official statement making it known that [they don't even care that we've done this](https://theintercept.com/2015/09/16/tsa-doesnt-really-care-luggage-locks-hacked/), as the now-pointless locks affect theft prevention, not airline safety.

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.
