I pick mine with a tensoin wrench in the top of the keyway, then just try and find your way into a false set, then just pick the pins that push back.

gettin to know the binding order of the pins will help you a great deal, i only need to pick the second pin on mine to get a huge false set and then just finish of the other 5 with the 1st pin being picked last. and yes, top tension is deffinatly the way to go.

i think false setting them is easier when you spp for it... i usually start from the middle and then move back and then forwards...

when your first startin into the lock you want to push the only the pins that seem harder to push down than the others, and that will eventualy lead to a false set.

alright dude...the biggest thing with brinks is getting that false set. Ive talked about that a couple times, especially on my brinks adjustable vid. The easy part is the picking, the hard part is actually trying to get the false set, thats just on my own experience, ive got one left over from the on i sent ya Joe, so, Ill pick it up tomorrow and see if i can find any pointers for you. The keyways is soft, and my tensions usually like to slide which i hate. so ill try the top of the keyway. Once you got that false, its on dude...
