Postby Slick Pick » 27 Jan 2009 19:02

Hi everyone,

Here are the images:

So before I ruin a perfectly good Peterson pick, poking and probing around like a mindless zombie. Any suggestions? If this needs to be in the advanced section please let me know because I'm not there yet. Thanks for all your help this is a great site!

Its just a disk lock m8, there is a pick for this type of lock and i have used one succesfully on a couple of similar locks i have here,
it has 8 disks in it and it can be quite a challenging lock, not something for the beginer

Okay thanks for the helpful tip sparkster. It can sit on the shelf until later. I'm happy taking my time and learning how to do it the right way. I apologize if the pictures were to big, as this is the first time I've posted any.

I am locking this thread before discussion of how to pick it begins. Disk lock picking is allowed in the advanced area of the site.
