my n52 magnets came today,this is the result,no fuss at all.
pic shows magnet in pin position acting like a regular pin.
easy to place and remove.

seems like its easy to change the bitting of the lock... from the outside... not sure how this would help you open the lock but its deffinately not good

[10ringo10]

Its good as it pulls the pin up flush,on just one touch,thats all you need on the abs.the magnet in the key does the exact same thing all the rest of the pins are pin in pin brass and are not effected lsa.

sooo... they only have 1 steel pin... not great drill resistance?!?

[10ringo10]

It as anti drill pinS in the front,not in the plug 3 in total,like any other lock,some have only 1 like the mult t.
Because this lock as been picked,they moved the magnet back a few pins and was a bitch to pull out,this should sort it.
This lock his mark 1 magnet in front. mark 2 and 3 they moved the magnetic pin back into the lock.
The magnet his sat in the pin hole in the pic,making contact with the steel pin.

Ive made it a bit more clear,yes theres only 1 steel pin in the plug.
and you,ll know when the pin his set because the magnet will only push off when set,as its sat in the pin hole.

ABS opened with my new method,works much better than the old method.
see pic .

2 things Ringo - how are you getting the magnet back out again and also where did you get those cool little n52 magnets from?

[10ringo10]

The magnets are from spider magnet systems on ebay,under strong magnets n52 50 + £3.59 free p+p.
The magnet goes in dead easy on the tip of your pick,and comes out the same way.
