So I bought an Abus 88/40, and bumped my table last night. If anyone has any advice on reassembling a disc detainer after you’ve messed up the stack, that’d be great. Otherwise, I’ve just bought myself a rather annoying red belt flavored jigsaw puzzle.
Edit: puzzle solved!!! Thanks everyone for your help!!! That was definitely an interesting exercise that helped me understand disc detainer cuts way better lol
Dimple locks have been my obsession lately. Started with the green-purple lock box from LockPickersBench and I’ve been working on a Sargent Keso recently, and I’ve managed to get it open once already! Those black belt locks are no joke though!
This was a fun lock just because it needed a shim to act as a tensioner to get into! Half the battle was sanding down an old lock pick to fit the side bar just right.
Finally got around to recording the blue belt video. I’ve picked this Paclock a bazillion times by now and ran through a couple other blue ranked locks. I decided to use this one because it’s the least camera shy and SPP gives it a nice crunchy false set. When I first got this lock it took me two or three weeks to figure out and now I consistently get her open in under a minute.
For the project I went with decoding a combo lock, because I never dabbled in that area of locks before. I ended up using the Master lock 875 because it was resettable and I didn’t feel like buying a bunch of different combo locks to practice on.
Already working on my purple belt locks!!! 😈😈😈
I got some Kenaurd 4 pin (Green) and 5 pin (blue) dimple locks this week. I noticed mine have serrated outer pins, and the ones on LPU only show standard pins. Any thoughts on difficulty???
These were some of the most fun locks I’ve gotten my hands on lately. Dimple picking took a bit of a learning curve, but those false sets and opens were real nice!
