One less lock in the naughty bin!

I am still a beginner and as this is not the most impressive pick, i have been having lots of trouble with this lock, some of you may recall from another thread of mine, it is a Brinks disc lock and well i was finally able to pick it! This lock has tourmented me for weeks but i was able to defeat it with top of the keyway tension and good ol' single pin picking, one of the difficulties of this lock is that it requires the perfect balance of medium to heavy tension, the lock itself is under high tension already, i did not notice any sort of security pins in this lock, picture below of my success!

Nice! Sounds like you learned a great deal about tension with that one.

Yeah the tension and the small keyway was what made it hard, i sure learned alot about tension, i haven't been able to pick it a second time yet

[Altashot]

Yep! Tiny keyway on those.
Now try picking it while it's locked on a shed upside down in the middle of the night
when it's 20 below zero...

Good job!

It is a difficult pick, especially since my tension wrench isnt designed for top of the keyway tension, its just a standard L shaped tensioner, a little tricky to hold in the top of the keyway, i managed to pick this lock a second time today using the same method
