The pictures will explain it well enough but basically,
Remove the plug from the lock body,
Your now left with your plug and bottom pins,
Take some cellotape and put it over the holes on the plug,
Now you have a plug that can be held in a vice and manipulated, everytime you hit a pin you can see it move,
Every time you lift the pin up high enough to the shear you know what sort of height differance in the keyway a pick has to move to pick a lock,
You can lift the pins to shear and by putting a little more pressure on not unlike the setting of a real lock, the pin will stick on the tape and act as a set pin,
You can try differant binding orders,
You might like the idea or might not, its worth a thread just incase it helps one of you, you may like to try coloured tape to hide the pins or even an elastic band to better simulate the springs of the lock with a correctly moved pin showing as a dimple moving under the elastic,
It was only an idea
