interesting padlock

[slimpick]

hello fellow pickers. ave come come across a rather interesting padlock and would like to know if any one can enlighten me as to its specific dynamics. paradoxicaly, on the one hand, i enjoy the challenge, yet would be sad when i defeat it. Such is the joy of locks -sport. The blighter in question is a Newsome, all stainless steel closed shackle type, with a restricted keyway where the pins appear to be on angle.

regards. slimpick.
Peace dont break the lock

Hi and welcome to the forum.

It will help us very much if you can link to a photo of your padlock, or perhaps include a brand name or model number. The forum no longer allows attachments, but you can upload a photo to a free site like photobucket or tinypic.com and then paste the http link here so we can take a better look.

Thanks!

thankyou sqelchtone for your timely reply. Not quite sure how to do the photo links bit yet. So the lock. It says on the casing Newsome top security and nothing else, no model number, type or style. However, I did discover it is manufactured by Newsome tools and it is a 60mm protected shackle lock. I have been playing with it for a week now and it seem to get more interesting/frustrating. Can my fellow pickers help shed some light in to this darkened keyway?

Here's a video for you, is your padlock like this one? or does the shackle slide sideways on yours?

Thankyou sqelchtone. The video says it all. My no longer interesting padlock is now a basic pin pick challenge, which I shall endeavour to master befor xmass as a treat to myself. Great forum.
