Bought an Abloy camlock assy w/o the cam for a decent price on eBay.

So now I'm like a dog chasing a car...now that I got it, what am I going to do with it - as far as picking?

Is the disc detainer pick the only way to pick these bad boys? Apart from a BFH, blowtorch or C4, I don't see any other options.

Anybody use a disc detainer pick - and how hard is it to get the feel for the discs?

i have seen people make tension wrenches for them and then just use normal picks. i think i saw a vid somewhere. i will try & track it down.

Any help would be appreciated. I've never had one of these locks, so it's all new to me.

watch the master at work! ( redbird1983) pick that style lock on youtube with his custom made disc-detainer tool that tensions from the BACK disc,so it does not depend on the first disc being a zero-cut for tensioning...sheer and utter genius.
and there is no way that i know of to use regular tension tools,
even IF you got a zero cut on the first disc.
( all the luck be with you HallisChalmers.=)
