tumblers. The location of the tooth of the tumbler determines whether it
is right of left. Illustrations in this procedure show the right tumblers
on the top and the left tumblers on the bottom. All tumblers are marked
1R, 1L, 2R, or 2L. The number being cut depth and the letter meaning right
or left.
