Day 211 of 366. This is the demonstration that no matter what tool you have, with the proper technique you can use it anyway.

Thank you. Let's see how the 2020 goes before taking on new challenges!

Femurat's 2021 challenge will be to manipulate open a safe lock with an unknown combination every day for the year. Really look forward to seeing that thread!

Sounds reasonable

[femurat]

I'm in, as long as you supply the safes! Otherwise it would be a very short 2021...



Day 213 of 366. I'm not at home so no green table for a few days. I took a handful of small and light locks and one pick and two wrenches to entertain myself when I have a chance to play.

Day 214 of 366. This small souvenir from Seville has been quite entertaining, despite its size.

What kind of pins did you detect in it for it to be quite entertaining?

[femurat]

Nothing special with the pins kind. It was fun to try and find a way around the tall pins in that Lince keyway. Keep in mind I only have one pick with me.

Day 216 of 366. KIK are perfect for travelling, very light weight. I took 3 with me.

The argument that you "only have one pick with you" will not be accepted as a valid excuse under any circumstances in your case. We have plenty evidence in this thread that one is enough.

[femurat]

I agree, in fact I did open the padlock. The entertaining part was to maneuver a pick just a little taller than it should have been. So when I set a long pin it was very difficult to pass under it.
Anyway, I appreciate your compliment and wish you a great evening.

Day 217 of 366. No pick needed today. I used the tension wrench as a jiggler.
