Evva 3KS mortise cylinder gutted

[Baloopaloop]

Hey peoples, I got kinda tired of regular picking and locks yesterday, and decided to break out the evva 3ks lock that I didn't understand the function of. I got it all apart, after a bit of figuring, and I've got everything out now, if your interested in seeing what's inside, someones gotta explain how to post pictures on here.. the instruction thing went way over my head I've been practicing picking it, and I've gotten 8 out of the 12 sliders so far, not bad for two days worth of trouble. But definately a very interesting lock design, to whoever designed this, my hat is off to you

Okay thanks, I'll do that later today when I take the pictures

[Baloopaloop]

Okay, I'll do my best to explain how this lock works through pictures and posts, If you have any questions don't hesitate to ask. Big pictures coming up by the way

So here is the system



and the dissesembly, I had already removed the cam from the back



Now that the C clip is removed, all the sliders (soon to be shown) have to be inside the plug, I found that my key withdrawled all the sliders when almost fully inserted, but the profile bar restricted me from doing this, so I shaved off the profile bitting on one of my keys for easy dissesemly.

normal key



My special key



So here is the shape of the housing interrior



what's inside???





• the break down

the sidebars



the profile bar



and the sliders





sliders in place with the correct key inserted



notice that the sliders have a post in the center of each one, they line up when the correct key is inserted, the side bars have this shape



the posts line up in the middle resetion of the sidebar which allows it to drop into place, in turn allowing the plug to rotate.

when the wrong key is inserted...



locked sidebar



correct key, when rotated will push against the housing, depressing the sidebars



Next we have the profile bar



with the right key profile they line up perfectly



Now, just how all the parts sit together when they are actually together



Now what I made to pick this beast not perfect but so far it has held its' own pretty well



and 8 sliders picked this took a while, believe me

Hey can someone help me out??? what did I do wrong?

Okay, your doing it mostly wrong.

You need to use the "img" tag from photobucket to post on here, not the lp101 add image.

basically when your on the main page of your photobucket, you should see links below all the small images, look for the "IMG Code" and cut paste that link into your reply here.

Better yet, look for the thumbnail image code if the images are large. If you want to remove your photobucket password, or just PM me it, I can clean up this thread for you.

test one

Test two

[Baloopaloop]

Ugh, you want the links where the photo showed up in the thread here, not the clickable link. (the thumbnail link)

the sidebars



the profile bar



and the sliders


The sliders have two depth levels, the single post ones are deeper set than the twin post sliders. If you look at the key carefully you can see which track is which, the twin post sliders have a parellel track while the single post sliders have a single track line.
