Good you picked that one in the morning then! Did the paperclip work in the end?

Yes, I'm trying to pick something easy in the morning so I'm covered for the day. Then if I have time I pick something more interesting.

I'm a bit embarrassed to admit it, but the padlock that I thought was warded, it's a lever lock. It has three levers. The paperclip worked but I had to pick it properly, one lever at a time while pulling the shackle.

What's the story of that disc pick? It looks different from all others. Did you make it? Do you know what the tip is made of?

Day 140 of 366. This lock was in an old IBM PC. It prevented the users from fiddling with the components.
I included a key picture for key lovers.

Cheers :)

My friend Jaakko made it many years ago.
It's a specific pick for abus plus.
It's made of brass.

Nice curved dimple pick. Does it have a small part cut out to position it like your usual one? It's a bit hard to see.
