Ok, I am taking the advice of another member and starting this topic to keep up with my successfully picked
locks

Here is the 1st picture
Hope it works

My picks

Blew right through this one with no problem

nicely done.
looks to me as if you are ready to step up to the plate,and keep the masters as confidence locks.
if you can pick all of these with relative ease,
i suggest getting your hands on an ABUS,or similar...anything with security pins..
even a schlage deadbolt or KnK cylinder. you can repin,and add spool pins etc.
avoid the Master lockout locks as they are prone to throwing pins when the plug is turned to 180 deg. with no key in place and must be broken to repair the cylinder.
happy pickin's

nicely done as awol70 mentioned now move on to something with security pins

abus is a good choice go for the 65/50 the security pins in these I feel offer great feedback so you can get the feel really well what I mean is when you set them
the wrench turns back pretty deliberately if that makes any sense.

keep everyone posted & let us know how you get on.

catch ya lata have fun..................................

I think you should move on to a Brinks max security padlock, they have 4 pins, they use the Masterlock M1 keyway, but they have some security pins in them, they are a great introduction, and they are readily available and cheap, go to Wal-Mart, you will find them there.

Brinks with spool pins. Picked with lots of patience. I think the Abus disks was a tougher lock to pick


Also my home brew tension wrench built just for this lock. The Southord were either too large or too small

Congrats on the accomplishments.... And you're already improvising and creating tools for the task. You'll do very well grasshopper..

Happy Picking,

They arent bad but the europe style SUCKS they bend directly i was never able to pick with em because he was bended stright away

I am using the Southord 32 piece set. There are only about 7 or 8 picks that I really use out of it though.
