Dilly541,
They are not really all that hard to make, they look like a long version of those used on corned beef cans. Now that I think about it, you might be able to make an inelegant temporary one from one of those. Might as well get some cabbage when you buy the beef.

My wife would prefer I pass on the cabbage. LOL.
Already made a key. I had a small broken file with a square stem. Heated it up and bent it into the shape of one of those corned beef keys. I sandwiched it between 2 pieces of walnut and sanded it smooth as a handle/grip. Looks like a car key and works perfect.
