Much better pictures!
I do have some questions, though. Most electric or sonic toothbrushes that I've seen have motion on both the vertical axis and on the horizontal axis, which would not be very useful for a pickgun. How does the motion on your toothbrush work? Does the pick move only up and down or does it also move left and right?
I'm glad to see that it's actually worked out for you, though!

Ive got to say i dont doubt you but im extremely supprised this works, there just isnt enough power in the toothbrush springs or drive to let it work on any locks found over here.
Is your tip made from plastic?
Omikron, no these toothbrushes rotate only,

Ok, I was with you there when you used the tool the first time there, but what was the 2nd time all about?

Picking locks with bologna, eh? Hmmm....
Ok, what I meant is, in the video you seem to pick the lock twice. The first time you pick the lock, you rotate the plug 90 degrees. But then you seem to pick it again. But, unless I'm missing something (and I may well be) I don't see why you couldn't have just rotated the plug on the 2nd time around, as I would think it would already be in a picked position.
So... tell me. What am I missing.

I understand .ok better thus this lock has a pin which blocks with half, does not ask me why...
but also I must replace my "tension" because it blocks at the edge of the office looks at the video one well

I'm still not sure I follow, but I'll take your word for it.

Congratulations on getting to work so well! You've just successfully made a very cheap and very workable electric pick!
Perhaps I missed this, but did you mention the brand/type of locks that you are picking in the videos? Have you been able to try it out on better locks to see how it fares?

I thought he turned the plug 180 dgrees - at which point the top pins fall down and lock the plug in that position - usualy you would use a tension wrench to lift the pins up easily, but he used his toothbrush-pick to do it...
unless I'm confused as well
