Thank you.
It's a very important barrier overcomed for me, picking an UL rated lock.
I know it's nothing special, but to me it means a lot, so to everyone who helped me directly or indirectly, thank you!

Just poped the ignition of a Smart:
7 wafer lock. Nothing special about it, but all the goo and dirt inside it dampened the hole thing. Got to something that felt like a false set (on a wafer lock? lol) many times and couldn't get it done. Untill finally:
Now I have to make a key for it!
P.S. - For those who don't know which car is a Smart, here it is:

Medeco Biaxial 6 pin
Still not consistent, it was just my first time picking it with 6 pins. But I'll get it eventually!
Used a short hook with a small groove I made in it.
Fantastic job, Filipe! I was betting it would not be long before you picked a Medeco.

Who were you betting with? Did you win a lot of money, or didn't you trust me enough?
Picked it a couple more times by now. But I still feel a bit of luck when I succeed. The rotation still messes with my head. And sometimes, after not succeeding for a bit, I give it a violent rake and get it after a bit. Which means I still need to practice a lot on these

Russwin core removed for Jeff. Thought this was a cool looking return spring. Never saw something like this before. It is pretty strong.

I have killed enough locks to be labeled a serial killer but have no up loaded vid to prove it you will have to take my word for it .

Serial killers, by nature, tend to take SOME sort of trophy
from their victims - be it a shoe, a picture, or a finger...lol
Nevertheless, I do beleive you, and will take your word for it. lol

AB keeps one spring from each lock he kills. So far, his collection of springs weighs 28 pounds!
