this lock came in the mail yesterday,and i opened it today.
what a rush...first,the deep false set got me going...then discovering that this particular type of mushroom can be(relatively )easily set like a spool pin.
(my other 3 MTL's have serrated & shrooms)
THEN pulling out of deep false to the mushrooms,and falling into the REALLY DEEP false i was after...
the inner pins....30 seconds later,the camera was rolling,and the lock was open.
a minor setback, i lost an inner pin when i took out the core, forgetting in my excitement the plug and bible are separate and not held together

I WILL UPDATE THIS POST WITH MORE PICS THIS WEEKEND, (TIME PERMITTING)
EXPLODED! MTL disassembly/breakdown...

Once again...great work Ray! Looking forward to the picking vid.

thanks,man this is a real milestone for me ..=)

I bet you were riding that buzz for awhile. Unknown interactive pick in a day? Electric Top shelf shit. How long have you been studying and trying different locks, picks, etc to be able to spp the telescopic pins?

Damn you are good

Glad you've finally made it

hell,yeah...=) lockpicker's crack,right there...
i have been working on the MTL since last year,(summertime)
when i spp'd that garrison 7 pin MTL.
after that,my quest began to find a pin-in-pin lock to practice on..
my locksmith friend helped me out and hooked me up with a customer return MTL interactive.
i continued through,trying the ™goso dimple picks,and a few homemade tools,and eventually saw
kizza8484 pick the MTL classic with a tool he had made....i asked him if he would make me one and he did....since then,i have accumulated several MTL's,and have been practicing ever since.
i want to make my own variation of this tool,as this tool is designed to lift the outer and inner pins...
i want to make another one of these,(a spare) as well as a similar design, dedicated to setting inner pins,independently.....

great work man, finally.

here it is,all torn down,and reassembled sans shackle,for easy practice,w/o the unwanted risk of locking the lock,before i attempt to find a key with matching pins or someone who can cut me a key...
