Ahhhh, hahahaha. Man.

That video was charmingly awkward :D a quick "banana lockpicking" google search will turn up any number of viewing options.

I bet if you punch 'banana picking' and add the author 'digital_blue' into the search engine, you'll find the vid very quickly.

I'm suprised you can't move the pins at all - I'm guessing the key works?

Are you Jewish? I'm struggling to see what the 'noc the Jew' bit is all about.

Hey But.. try not to use wordslike jew. I understand its you, but in here..as i was warned a lonng time ago.

Keep race ethanticity, and waht else do they have sexual orientation out.. jsut locks.

Now if oyur racist against say... master lock thats fine.. alot of people are in here..

But just keep those topics to yourself.. i am open to all people.. but this is lockpicking brotha. All us pickers whether hobby or lockie were all the same.


So your question schlage... i would say take a pic.. but its your apartment.. and this is the internet.. so X that thought out.


Heres what you should do. Do to lowes with a picture of oyur lock.

Try and find one that matches and practice with that. If oyur worried about being locked out.. a locksmith if you buy the deadbolt or knob lock, would be glad to repin to the key you have.

Best of luck. Schlages doesn't ahve an over whelming key way.

If oyu coudl take a clossseee up of just the warding (part where you insert key) that would be fine.

Good luck mate

bananas

Postby raimundo » 15 Sep 2006 8:54

and remember the banana must be at just the right state of ripe or you cant pick with it at all.
