to whoever asked how do I get banned?

I tweak people off with the stuff that I say, and I have NO intention of tweaking off anyone. I am assuming tweak means make mad right?

how exactly will a 5 pin bump a 6 pin? Wouldn't it be a 6 pin bump a 5? And I am sorry for the double post, I don't think this forum has a post edit button.

The ramp at the end of a 5 pin key will bump the 6th pin.

2 questions. why do places sell 6 pin bump keys?

and, why are on bump keys that last pin thing (i am a n00b) is a lot higher than the other ones.

1) i think the reason for companies selling both 5 and 6 pin keys is for more sales and therefore more of your hard earned £££/$$$

2) the inner peaks are lower as both sides are filed to a 9 cut, the end is only filed on one side.
if you file the outer edge all the peaks will be the same height.

Unless you are proficient at opening handcuffs, cell door locks and similar, it is in your own interests to avoid opening other peoples locks without permission. :D

Places sell 6 pin bump keys because the people who buy them don't do reesarch. Just look at the keys they sell? Who would bump a Kwikset instead of picking it?

I can do both. I pwn the kwikset either way.

Try putting in a couple spool and serrated drivers in there and disregard MACS. Kwikset isn't much of a challenge to begin with but with these modifications you may learn that you probably haven't pwned kwiksets completely just yet.
If a lock is a puzzle, then its key is the complete picture
