I have the same tri-circle padlock...
if you can open it pin-by-pin you got me impressed. I have only even opened mine using heavy tension, and raking it.
If you are raking it be very careful not to do it too hard, because the pin metal is VERY soft, and will stop it being opened by a key if you do it a lot.

My only question is why are you shooting pictures in the bathroom  ?
For the best book out there on high security locks and their operation, take a look at amazon.com for High-Security Mechanical Locks An Encyclopedic Reference. Written by our very own site member Greyman! A true 5 Star read!!

I noticed that too, but I missed the band-aids on the floor the first time.  What, exactly, is going on there? 
 If it ain't broke.....pull it down and see how it works anyway!

Ha!
You guys have to much imagination.The reason why the photos where taken in the bathroom, is because in the room the light is great. Elsewhere, the light is too dime which caused the pictures to be too dark. The band-aids, were there since that morning because my couzin ( the one that's half naked in that picture) accidentally cut himself while using the bench grinder, even though I showed him how to use it, he still messed up.

So, what would you 'normally' be doing in the bathroom, that involves standing beside the toilet with your back against the wall? With band-aids on the floor?

Yes... it could be an "alternate ending" to the story of the guy with the padlock around his junk.
