Title: Fail: Manabloc Key
Post by: Mark Duckworth on September 28, 2017, 12:49:17 pm
I foolishly shut my water bay door while the Manibloc key was attached to a valve.  The door broke the key and a super glue attempt was a fail as well.  For the 3rd fail I ordered a replacement key from Amazon (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0069TJPA2/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1) but it's the new larger style.

A couple of forum searches return results about a new, larger style key (maybe the one I got from Amazon) but nothing on an original replacement.  Any one sourced one of these?

Thanks!
