Interesting Graph Results
Posted: Fri Jun 20, 2014 7:12 pm
Okay guys, it's Friday and if you're anything like me when you get home you start picking or spinning. LOL. So, I'm on my 4th opening (really 3rd because opening #3 was a failure) and after graphing the lock I opened it, but along the way some very interesting results. Now bear in mind that I'm on opening #4. So, for those of you out there who have 40 or 50 plus openings this might be no big deal to you, but to a rookie like me it's very interesting. Brief background info. I'm really trying to learn to "free spin" so that If I come across a safe on the fly that needs to be opened I'll be ready. I do believe doing it the basic way is extremely safe and reliable. And so even though I do some of the "shortcuts" I always follow up with the basics to kind of double check my work. Which in opening #3 was a complete disaster (but that's another story).
So, I had my lockie change the combo again. My lock is a group 2 lock cutaway ( I do honestly try my best not to look; only sometimes when I'm Isolating W2 and have to park other wheels in different areas I might get a little confused and take a peek at which way the wheels are moving.) and also my lockie buddy is going to give me a practice lock that's not a cutaway, hopefully next week. That'll be fun.
Anyway, so I'm gonna post my first graph that I'd like you guys to look at and tell me what you think. And my question is which of these is the gate I'm looking for??? I know the gate now that I've finished the opening, but the graph is really interesting to me and I have some questions. The same thing with the second graph. I know where the gate is, but I'm interested to know what you guys would say just from looking at both graphs. They are for W3 and W2. I was able to open the lock after BF'ing the last number (or really number 1 in the combo).
Take a good look guys, because this is kind of a trick (for lack of a better word)....not really a trick...but to me it was kind of tricky....
Thanks,
Rick
