In case anyone cares, my goodguy locksmith found an Ilco blank to
replace the steel Neiman key for the fork lock on loops (and tontis and
BMWs). It's ILCO SR61N.

I also found a website where the 6-digit code on the original Neiman
keys is explained. My Eldo came with the broken-off head of the
original fork lock key, with the # on it. Using a small triangular file
and another Neiman key for spacing, on the second attempt I got the key
to turn the fork lock. I touched it one more time with the file to clean
it up (doh!) and it wouldn't work again! So I picked up two more blanks
today and will try again ($1 each).
