Two posts for the same lock, huh?

If you have a short hook, rake, and a tension wrench you already have the necessary tools. Now all you need is enough skill to use them. Practice makes... well it probably won't make you worse.

Why on earth are you beating yourself up on a CEN4 grade lock at your level of experience.

Take it easy mate and get used to "feeling the force" with easier locks without anti-picks before you get too ambitious.

Ha ha, that is way out your league! Keep it until you can beat something like a Yale euro, or an ERA euro (one that isn't dirt cheap).

The best time I've ever got is 14 seconds on one of those, on a lock I'd worked hard to master, in my hand. However, sometimes that same lock would take me 3 minutes.
