Had to use a 0.4 mm pick on these, just a hair too tight for 0.6. I think I've gone through all the easy ones now, so it might be a while until the next one pops open.

Those keyways are nasty to be sure Marcel. I haven't had the (mis)fortune to play with some euro locks yet. B
Going to see if my sis can pick up some abus c83's or others with those tight euro keyways in January.

Slightly off topic as I didnt need to pick anything but my wife got handed a couple of simple suitcase combination padlocks to give to me. No skill involved but it goes to show a little knowledge of locks can go a long way. 3 digit code but no code. OK I try a default 999 and bingo! thats them both open.
Rewind 1 year and I wouldnt have had a clue what to do.

I picked all three of my Master M40's and a Teicocil cruciform lock (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=31gRbREfARc). Still being bested by my M930XDLH.... :akimbo: I've gotten into it once through pure luck and haven't been able to reproduce... It has a bitch of a bitting and it seems that every time I get the 4th pin set, I drop them all when trying to get the 5th... oh well. Someday right?

My lovely girlfriend is at it again and got me an American Series 1105 padlock as a stocking stuffer. It has a nice, nasty low-high key bitting (74542 bow to tip), but fell victim to my original Raimundo Bogota in about 6 minutes of rapid jiggling. I was actually a little surprised it popped open so quickly. I will SPP it soon and update with pin feel. Merry Christmas everyone!

This one has been in the naughty bucket for a little while. This is part of an double cylinder deadbolt kit I bought without the keys or bolt. The inside one I have picked several times and made a key from. The outside one has been evil :axeem: I slayed it today with a new tool made to slide on the side of the cylinder smoothly when picking at an angle. The scraping of hook picks was causing problems. http://instagram.com/p/xDX63BOnCf/

Nice job! I've heard that often times they place sec-pins in the outer half, but not on the inside. That could be why?
