Just got the master 140, we can't possibly be talking about the same lock? I got mine open in 2 minutes the first time. Pretty easy, spool pins and all. BTW, I do not consider myself that great at picking, only been doing it for a few months. Turns out I already had a 140 clone and never knew it, the Helping Hand padlock is identical accpet it says Helping Hand. It too is easy to open. Despite the spool pins which would normally present a challenge on other locks, the tolorances are so bad with master that you can open it and never know it had spool pins.

You want a real master challenge? Try the #532 ;)
