I laid off posting it 'cause i'd read all the refusals for safecracking tutorials; i guess this is a different story.
I hope it works... If it does not and anybody finds anything wrong with it feel free to let me know. Or, in the case that i didn't explain enough, i'd be happy to try and clarify.
For those of you that want to know, the serial no. to my lock is 6 digits, the first 3 being 900.
How to open a Master Combination Lock Quickly…revised.
First of all, spin the dial 3x to the right to clear the mechanism (you probably know that already). Stop at 0.
A Brief Introduction:
Before we move on, one should remind the other that there are 12 gates… 11 fake and 1 genuine. The real gate is ‘sharper’ then the others and will be felt with less pressure than you would need to feel any of the other false gates. So when you pass it, you should be able to feel it much more distinctly. But you know that.
1) After clearing, put pressure on the shackle with your left index finger (considering your left hand is holding the lock, otherwise obviously you would switch). Spin the dial quickly.
2) Do you feel the multiple clicks indicating the false gates? If you do, ease up pressure.
3) Do you feel any at all? If not, add a little pressure with your finger.
4) Anyway, the goal is to isolate the correct gate. If you’ve got the right pressure upwards, the dial will stick slightly in one spot upon each full rotation.
5) Generally speaking, you’ll be able to push the shackle up twice; that is, you’ll feel it give about halfway, then you can push it up once more. When you start, push the shackle down as far as it goes. After the first give, add or decrease the pressure slightly… you’ll feel the solitary click around there.
6) CAUTION: Sometimes the dial will at first stick on 0… this may be the right one but MOST LIKELY it’s not. Increase pressure slightly and see if it changes. If it doesn’t, and it’s the only isolated spot, go for it. Remember, when I say push it up, I mean do it slowly, by little bits. It’s a fine line to find it, but with practice pretty easy.
7) Do you hear a sharp click at the same spot once every rotation? Double check a few times. Then…
Add 5 to the number you just got. It’s the last number in the combination. Clear the lock. Go left once or twice then apply pressure.
9) Repeat steps 1-4. When you think you’ve got it, do not add 5 to this number… it’s your real second no.
10) Now all you have to do is find your first number… if your last number is, say, 30, your first number is one of the following… 2, 6, 10, 14, 18, 22, 26, 30, 34, 38.
11) You probably are familiar with what I did there but to those of you that aren’t, the key is finding the MOD; or the remainder of your last number by 4. So 30 MOD 4 is 2 (30\4 = 7 with remainder of 2). So you have to try 10 different combinations instead of the usual 64.
12) If it doesn’t, try adding 6 instead of 5 to your first number.
13) Basically, remember
· To find the LAST NUMBER, turn RIGHT and apply pressure.
· To find the SECOND NUMBER, turn LEFT and apply it.
· Then, figure out the only 10 possibilities for the first number and dial them individually.
