Union cut away:

Very nice job. I need to get around to making one of these.

awesome, very nice work

It was my first attempt at one.

you done really well with it fair play

wow that is nice.

here is my first attempt at a cutaway...its not finished yet,as i have to straighten the cuts out a bit,
and widen them a bit,with a flat file....
this cutaway is a six pin sc4 schlage keyway,and one of the cool features is the pin stacks,
(which are mastered also)can be loaded from the top, without disassembly of the lock,
due to the little removable retaining clip i made from a peice of spring stainless.(wiper insert)
now i just have to find some schlage spool pins,and it'll be set.(my local locksmith didnt' even know what a spool pin was..=) i had to draw him a doodle of one on a scrap of paper.....
what does that tell you....?
its an indication of something....(not sure what..under qualification,maybe?)

ray that's awesome, good job, them hotel locks came in real handy

hahah reminds me of the locksmith that lock himself out of the van... hahaha
but it could be worse, you could lock yourself in... hahaha

believe it or not i went to my local locksmith a while back and asked him what type of pins some lock had and he looked at me puzzled, i then said "is there any security pins in it" again he just looked at me puzzled so exactly as you did ray i drew him a little doodle to show him what i meant.

not good for a so called pro locksmith.

lol, here is my first.

Nice job all three of you.

yeah nice job man, what lock you pull that core from?
