Goto a local locksmith. We have a lock and safe small business here in Clermont. It is a basic filing cabinet key. Most locksmiths can read the depths and recreate it with minimal work. I would avoid the big box stores and they will just toss it in a machine.Anyone have a solution? Key isn't fully broken but slightly twisted and most places say they won't touch it to cut a new one.

Agreed. A real locksmith, versus someone in paint department covering in hardware, can measure depths at positions and create one from scratch.Most locksmiths can read the depths and recreate it with minimal work.
In the past a couple of times I have soldered a wire to the key and then pulled it out.How do they or you get the broken off flush key half out if you can’t take mechanism off?
