False Sets

[devnill]

I am in a dorm too, and i have an almost identical lock. (the keyway is a little different) I tried to open it, but i had no luck. I know they have securety pins, and i am pretty sure mine has spool pins, but i am not quite sure.

Also, the keyway makes it a little difficult to manuver the pick well.

I've been checking ebay for some best cores, no luck yet, if anyone wants to sell on shopping (or if you have a suggested place to buy one...) As for the brinks, I'll study that animation and see if I can't figure it out

thanks for all your help guys, this has been a great learning experience.

That animation shows exactly what I'm feeling

Should I just try to continue to set the other pins and then let the tension off for the false set and go through that way. What should I feel and what should I change to deal with the different type of pins in the brinks lock?

Oh, and on a sidenote, I won't buy masterlock again =P I started this a few days ago and can now pick masterlock padlocks in about 20-25 seconds.

As a FreeBSD guy, I gotta say that I love your sig.

If youre looking for BEST SFIC cores, try Main's lock supply at http://www.iccores.com/

I haven't used them yet, but that seems to be most of what they do.
