Using back-tension tool to open "Tibbe-locks"
I know people use the Tibbe-tool to open these locks but looking at some locksmithsupply-sites, I came over a tool called the Tibbe-wand.
The way the tool was made and how to use it.. I thought of my DD-back-tension tool (that I never use) It should be possible to tweak it a bit and use it instead.
And it worked like a dream. (my first try took about a minute to open the lock)
The only thing that I did was to grind the tip, to the shape of "tension"tip on the key.

To pick it just go disc to disc and when you can turn it - to the click. on my locks (ignition) I have to turn a disc 5 times before it opens
