My Squire Lock No. 02 isn't too challenging.

ive been picking for a couple of weeks now so when work ordered a £13 squire padlock the first chance i got to get my pick in i did, and to my amazement i opened it in less than 5 mins. the lock itsself looked very impressive and me just starting out i thort i would have no chance. just shows you dont it. wish i could open the £3 tri-circle as easy. also having trouble with a union. arr well il keep practicing

You can't pick a union or a tri-circle!!! :shock:

What are You using tinfoil?

Please tell Me You are trying to pick the omega mechanism!,
Well You have to start somewhere and I can't think of a better lock to try to pick than a union, That's how I started. :D

Tri-circle have the 6 pin mechanism but a fat lot of good that does it, You should open the lock in around 5 mins- with proper picks.

keep going i'm sure You will do it. :)
