La Gard 3330 cutaway.

[RangerF150]

Having played with some combination locks, and had some fun with them, then i read the Matt Blaze article , there was only one thing i could do!

Go get a cutaway of a "proper" lock.

I have ordered the "La Gard 3330" cutaway, should have it in the next few days or so

I have, as noted the Matt Blaze tut which seems pretty comprehensive, however i am sure i will have some questions related to this before long.

Can i ask them here ?

I know there is a "restriction" , and i can see why, on asking questions that relate to safe's , and i don't want to cross that boundary , and get myself into trouble on what is one of my favourite sites.

So any advice would be great , if i had a question , would it be smart to send it in a private message to a mod to see if it's OK to post first?

Or is that a waste of time as any question is doomed to be rejected?


Thanks for any usefull advice that will keep me on the right side of the mods

You stared off with a question about the practice see through locks, then you go to safes? Im confused. But for the practice locks, I suggest you take out all the pins and leave in 1 if you can, then work your way up. Also put some black electric tape over the see through part, so you dont relie on sight to open a lock.

The La Gard 3330 is a safe combination lock.
The one i ordered is a cutaway, and mounted on a stand, it's NOT a pin and tumbler lock.

Thanks !
