JMA USA have a set of this adapters for easy cut this kind of keys (tibbe) but I think their are little expensive.
there are another brands more cheap same quality
but personaly I made this keys by hand only you have to manage thre cuts (DEEPS 2,3,4) and six spaces. its more easy that it seems only you need practice and patience.
you dont need to disarm even a single screw. (in case of no one key exist)

What machine are you using, I use a Silca Delta FO purpose built for FO21 Tibbe keys, depends on how many you intend to cut. I do loads....this is a great machine.

Oh a Tibbe, ive seen that name but never knew what it meant.
Now I know that it means those little stick keys that are a complete c*** to cut.

i use a Gladaid KL818DF. Its just a chinese machine but i must admit its actually not that bad at all (well so far anyway).

Gladaid KL818DF products, buy Gladaid KL818DF products from alibaba.com

Can you guys post some pics of what this adaptor that holds the keys looks like? thanks guys

I have been looking at this tool which cost about $65 USD FORD tibbe key cutter for start.
I have already ordered one and should have it in 2 weeks will post my findings.
I called my Bianchi Dealer and he said the vice was about $480 USD

I have found the device you bought to be inferior. You may be luckier tan I was.
