Your style of picking always baffles me. It's like you are going through the pin stack like through a grocery store, picking up what you want. One thing I miss thougn in your videos is a look at the bible after the gutting. Beside that, it's always a pleasure to wath and to listen to you!
Welcome back my friend! I'm really excited to see you pick the dimple lock. However, I am most interested in seeing you pick the KESO series of locks!!! Keep up the great work!
Richard Logan I really don't want to see him pick the ingersoll as it would just make me feel shit,my rim cylinder took me 13 month's 12 broken picks and a smashed window to open.
cardiffpicker1 - Wow that's a long time and a lot of broken picks, but props to your perseverance with the rim cylinder. Ingersoll locks are some of the hardest to pick, but I'm fairly sure he will succeed, that's why I sent it to him. As you probably heard I managed to pin the Draper back-to-front when I reassembled it; a typical newbie issue, lol.
Richard Logan thanks but to be honest i think i lucked into it as i have known far better pickers than me have no luck and the tension required is so ridiculous I had to grind down an allen key as I didn't have anything strong enough.
Good luck with the Banham! the opposing pins need to be in contact to avoid oversetting, that's why the key has holes. I'd recommend gutting it first to see how it works, it's not too hard to reassemble.
The Draper looks exactly like my Federal 730, they are probably made in the same factory. On the pinning tray it looks like a tough pick but in practice not too hard.
I picked mine open and it felt like at least 2 spools so it's probably pinned up in a similar style. I'm not going to attempt to gut now. It took me a touch longer to open it than you. Sometimes your speed is disheartening :)
I'm sure you had an ingasol padlock a way back, and iv seen a chap pick one on RU-vid but I think the video has been retracted. They are a very high security lock. Would be good to see you do it! Good to get you back...
Isn't that Ingersoll sort of like the Master Lock with the smart key style core that has the same type of side bar setup? Reference vid #626 'A Pick Proof Master Lock? ALMOST!'
I wonder, have you ever thought about returning and editing the info on videos like this where you show us multiple locks you've been sent and link to the videos where you pick the other ones? The algorithm of RU-vid doesn't always lead us to those and you now have well over a thousand videos... which I'm slowly working my way through.
always too slow on lockpicking, always above 3 seconds on all your videos. I can always open all the locks youve picked with 1 or 2 shots from my 50BMG in a sec or less than a sec.
