Lock picking

I just got the key blanks in the mail today. I measured the width and they are 1/16 inches thick. Looks like 7/16 inch wide. Pics and more measurements on request. Also, you posted that you got your home made key to turn 95 degrees?? I've read that sometimes on the old locks you have to pull on the shackle to open it, especially if the release spring is worn/weak.
