Zeke, are your videos encoded in XviD of DivX?
If so, just tell people to download DivX Here

I had no trouble downloading, extracting, or viewing it, but I'm still waiting for the tips on setting the sidebar.

Congradulations with the medeco. Let us know how the primus goes. Ever thought about trying a medeco 3? That would be interesting.

It seems as though my server is getting overloaded at this point. If anyone has any ideas for another hosting solution please let me know or someone who has it feel free to upload it to a new host and post a link.
Ezer, the biggest tip I can give you for learning how to set the sidebar is start with a single pin and learn how the false groove feels compared to the correct one. There is a distinct difference in the feel. Once you have moved up to 5 pins grab another cylinder and give it a go with 5 pins. That is exactly how I learned to pick the cylinders I have. I also had to be a little more assertive on the tension to keep the sidebar set. There really is no trick to doing it but the locks do have their own feel to them.
quickpicks, I have not even looked into a medeco 3 yet. I need to do some research. This 5 pin biaxial had my head spinning for some time so I am hesitant on even picking up a 6 pin.

Hey guys, I can host any files on my webserver, which is completely reliable and has a huge pipe (bandwidth)
All you have to do is send me the file over aim or some other method and I'd be more than happy to host it per your request.

I'll keep that in mind in the future Minion. My home connection just doesnt quite cut it when 15+ connections are downloading at once  .

Congradulations on the Medeco. I very much enjoyed the "for the non-belivers" part.
Lock picking is an art, not a means of entry.

Well, if I just said "hey, I picked a medico biaxial twice in under 8 minutes" would anyone here honestly believe me??  Heck, I probably would not have believed myself. I am still in disbelief when either one of my biaxial cylinders open. I should have another one on the way soon that just needs pinned up. It's a six pin though (thanks Ezer). That should keep me occupied for quite some time  .

Hi...
I'm new to this forum, and i tought that Medeco locks were unpickable... I didn't have access to the video since my browser didn't found the website (I'll try it later on another computer).
My question is simple: What kind of pick did you use for this Medeco?
Thanks for your attention...
