Really nice to see someone pwning these "unpickable" locks!
I have one, but haven't started on it yet (well, just felt it up a bit but no actual attempt at picking it). No key and not the kind with easily removable top pins, so I need to shim it or something to practice the sidebar alone... Plus I need to drill out one of the screws to even get that far as some genius had LocTite'd them (wtf?).
Was planning it as my next project after Twin 6000.
They seem to be kinda hard to get as they are mostly part of big systems and returned to the locksmith when taken out of service . You can buy some cylinder called "Assa Max" in various lock shops here but I think that's just a recent Twin, not the Combi.
Maybe it's better to start with the Primus..? Easier to get multiple cylinders to experiment with if nothing else. Suggestions?
