Discovered Part of my problem

[gunnermatt]

Hey guys Im a newbe at the passtime of lockpicking and have spent alot of time just poking and proding and with almost just luck would sometimes get one to "pop". Well anyway I read the MIT Guide To Lockpicking and can recomend it to any newbe. The thing i learned from this guide and surfing the site that helped me the most was just how little tourqe you need. I found out that with less tourque you can actually "feel" the pins better. You can tell the ones that bind the most and have a better "feel" of when they are set.

thanks gunnermatt

yeha the smae went for me... i also found it helped when I moved from padlocks to a kwikset deadbolt. It might have been the spring loaded plug but I can really feel what the MIT guide was talking about with the binding pins.

You guys are onto something, another thing could be have a variety of tensors, widths, types, etc. an amazing amount of feel is also coming from the tensor.

Yea he beat me up a few times


Anyway, just slide oyu hook over the pins, the binding pin will be the one that will no recess like the others, lift that till it clicks... then do it 4 more times and the lock opens.

And remeber, forget raking, its a waste of time, single pin picking is wheres its at.. its harder, you will cry, scream, yell, hit bums, smash windows, glasses, and the like.... but once you learn, you can own locks.

Tragically I met Mr. Medeco, and stated my old smashing again.. i chose to not associate with Mr V10... i will probobly just jump out a window
