This method really works, but If at first you try this method and it doesn't work, do the following: 1. Make sure you are using the right size tool. There are 3 tools in the kit in 3 sizes, colored red, blue, and yellow. The red is the smallest, then blue, then yellow the largest. The two most common sizes for locks are red and blue. Some locks will accept both, but only one will work, and usually the smallest size that fits, in this case, red. Most tubular locks on safe are designed for the smallest size, red. 2. Push the tool into the lock, then use your fingers to push each of the seven pins firmly in against the lock. 3. After each round of pushing the pins into the lock, turn the lock in the direction to open while pulling it open simultaneously. Many safes require turning the nob counterclockwise. I was having problems opening a safe but found out I was using the blue tool instead of the red, and the pins were not fully pushing against the lock. Once I switched to the red tool and pushed the pins against the lock, it opened instantly.
Disculpa u como le puedo hacer si abrí la caja y cuando la cerré no quedaron los pines en el lugar correcto entonces meto la la ganzua pero si le pongo el perno no agarra
Nice one, though I'd suggest leaving one or two elastics in place to keep the picks against the tensioning core as you pick initially, and hold the picks in position for impressions.
Your video is very helpful. Better than all the rest that I have seen. I was having trouble my technique. Your detailed video showed me what I was doing wrong. And helped me a lot . Thank you. It’s the best video I have came across.please keep making them. I’m now a Subscriber
Awesome, I am very glad to hear it. I have e taken a break from making videos due to some personal stuff going on but I will start again as soon as I can. I will also be starting a second channel that is more focused on tutorials and teaching so as soon as that is ready I will make an announcement. Also if there is anything you are having trouble with, please feel free to ask questions. I'll try to get that second channel going as soon as I am able to do so. Thanks again for watching and I'm glad it helped.
Right on, let me know how it works out for you. You may have to take the bend out of the individual wires as well. Some models have been in the wires to keep a little extra tension on them and some do not at all. Let me know if you run into any problems and I'll do what I can to help you out.
Excellent video, very instructional. But is there a tubular impressioning tool that works on the ace 2 lock. And how much tension should I use when I spp this. Example like pressing an elevator button. Something I can relate to in my head. Thanks
These tools will actually work on Ace 2 locks, as will most other tubular impressioning tools. Some can just be a bit fiddly, and it's easier to pick one pin at a time. You don't need a ton of pressure just enough to push the pins down pretty much the same as when using a key. The Turing force you use is more important, but again, it doesn't take a whole lot. The most important part is the resistance on the tool. Like with these, it would be how many rubber rings you put on or on other tools it's how much you tighten the collar. The best way to learn is just to get the feel for it by practicing.
@@NothingPicksLocks ok brother, thanks for all the info. I didn't even know u responded till know. I ordered those huk tubular from gangbang or something like that. Been almost 3 weeks and I am still waiting. I will try what u said and let u know.
I had that same idea a few years ago when I got the huk 3 piece set that that is apparently from. I didnt get too far with it though but always thought someone better than me could make it work. I'm happy to see I was right. Lol thanks for the great video!
Thanks very much! Yeah I thought about it at first when BosnianBill did the pro1 video but I never really had the need to buy tubular impressioning tools but I got a really good deal on the huk set and thought well I guess its time I do this video lol. The trick is really getting all of the resistance off of the pick tips so you can feel the feedback and they can spring back at you.
I get the technique now, you just got unlucky with the demonstration 😅 I'm sure you've done it in a few seconds before comparatively to the almost few mins fail lol
Hey man I've been watching your videos I have a similar but different shaped lock on th front I was wondering if you had an email I could send a pic if you could help me out finding the right tools to pick it. Thanks!
So when the lock opens the pins are bottomed out in their cambers? You push each pins until it can be pushed no further and that constitutes its open position? That seems like a poor design.
That's not exactly how it works, each pin needs to be set at the intersection point between the key pin and driver pin. Once the lock is opened and you rotate it between the pin positions the back part of the lock is what the key pins are sitting on. As soon as you rotate the lock to the next position the pins can be pushed further down than the set position.
Yes absolutely, I only had it set up like that because I thought it was the best way to make the video so people could see what I was doing. The way the lock is mounted does not make a difference other than comfort while picking.
I left the tool intact, added some rubber bands to make the 'feelers' more stiff and spp'd the lock. It's similar to what you've done, maybe as a first step before straightening the 'feelers'? thanks
It is possible with modifications, but it definitely depends on the type of lock. There are a few different types of tubular locks that tension on the outer ring, and depending on which one it is depends on whether it would work or not. There are ways to modify the tool to make it work, but I don't know of any tools that will work out of the box on an outer ring tensioning lock. Are you asking for hobby purposes or are you actually locked out of something?
When they first came out, I bought 1, Assumed that's how you do it, Then I saw the Impression Method, Wonder which was actually first, I think SPP? They can also be Bumped
@@NothingPicksLocks I've seen a video where this guy made a tubular lock bump key. If I can find the vid I'll post the link but sometimes RU-vid blocks posted links.
@@doktaahwho8858 I just gotta say I love your name! The doctor and Data were my favorite characters in star wars! Lmfao I read somewhere that there was a doctor who/ star trek TNG crossover comic book where (Matt Smith) the doctor and Amy follow some cybermen into the star trek universe because the cybermen were trying to find the Borg because they were basically Borg that split apart and then left for the doctors universe... not that anyone really cares (but me I guess)... the joke at the top was a rehash of a meme going around with a picture of a dalek with the caption "ohh I love r2d2. He is my favorite character in star trek!" I'm sorry I'll stop now... I just wanted to say nice name.
