Oh, rookie ,mistake =P

What kind of Assa is this?


Maybe some day I will get my hands on a 700.

No idea - something quite old judging by the style of the ASSA logo (the lock in my profile with the same logo is from the early 60s).
I suppose if that lock has 7 pins it might actually have been sold as "700" series at some point, but...

There you have the 700 I'm referring to. Lots of fun promised! Probably the most common lock in Sweden, atleast when people care about it staying locked.

60's.. cool.

Those two scd marked was hard man, and 700-series harder?... im screwed haha

Did gut it, it was pinned like the Dejo, torpedos and check-pins =)
Didint get it togheter becasu I didnt have a fitting follower =P

Pictures?

No countermilling?

Sure, here.. it had countermilling (told not before, but I was wrong)
Not able to put it together thou =/

Very fun pick. With a large hitch that wasn't (mainly) my usual stupidity. I got up to 4 pins reliably reasonably quickly, and got it with 5 pins once, but then it started acting really strange. Stopped binding as I was picking the sidebar. I first assumed I was oversetting something, but totally releasing tension and even counter-rotating didn't help. It was occasionally possible to get it to bind by tensioning reaaaally hard (even broke a wrench in the process... RIP). It still opened with a key, but after figuring the really high resistance to engage the sidebar when turning the key wasn't normal, I took the thing apart and it seems one of the sidebar springs had fallen out of its place. Or so I think - in any case it worked perfectly after reassembly.

7 pin J keyway SFIC in a WB padlock, picked to control using a .050 prybar and my old reliable dipped handle gem.

Where do you guys get the thick prybars?
I would like to purchase some (the thicker versions)

Thanks in advanced

MadBobpicks.co.uk is probably closer to you.

Great job. I can't get the hang of control picking for nothing.
