I just scored three Wms Hi-Hand machines. 1957. No keys.

What are my best options?

Drill em?
Buy a lock pick set and try to learn how to do it?

Buy a score of keys from someone and hope one fits?

Great! Thanks! Once I get into them I can decide which doors / locks to keep. The plan is to end up with one good machine from the parts of all three.

No numbers. Thank you for the offer.

Isn't working with a nail file on these locks, but YouTube instructionals make things look easier than they really are. Maybe I just need to practice. I'll check out the lock picking lawyer, too.

Could not drill it. Not in a minute or ten. The lock defeated my bits. The new Milwaukee metal / stainless bit I bought didn’t touch it, either.

Ended up drilling out the door all around the lock. (It’s ok, I wasn’t going to use this cabinet anyway.)

For all that work, I was hoping for some treasure inside !

I got a 1991 dime, a coin box in good condition , nesting material and some styrofoam.

The treasure I was hoping for most of all was keys to the back box. No luck.

These locks have jagged edges on both sides of the key.

I have three heads I need to get into. The glass is old and I’m afraid to pound the paint off it. Think I’ll just take them to a locksmith.

Wooden doors.

I’ll be around all day today. C'mon by and show me how!

newmantjn More seriously, do you use a special bit?

Not to worry, I’ve got the heads at a locksmith who is picking them. Will end up with new door and head locks keyed the same. Opening three, but only need one to be functional.
