Homemade Locksmith's tools

Postby unbreakable » 9 Oct 2006 21:00

Well, I made a new guide!

This one shows how to obtain and use shims for standard pin tumbler cylinders,

how to make two different varieties of plug follower,

how to make a C-Clip remover,

and how to make a pair of locksmith's tweezers that really help in loading driver pins into a cylinder (no more fighting with tweezers and a lock pick, or straight screwdriver, etc. ).

It's complete with videos for each of the above things.

It's currently in Word Format because Cute PDF writer wouldn't save the links to the videos. If you know of a PDF writer that will save the links and make them clickable in the PDF, please let me know.

Without further ado- http://www.megaupload.com/?d=7X8HF8J2


Any sudgestions, comments or corrections please PM me with or post them here.

Thanks,
Unbreakable

LMAO Yea it will make you type these verification codes to type in the box next to it, which you do. Then you'll have to wait a certain mount of time which you'll see in the same box in the same place you typed in, and its take bout 45 secs and counts down for you, then click "Click here to download" .

(Might be a add in the way just X out of it.)

Well, what do you guys think?

Total shitite, or allright?

I hope to turn in into a PDF soon, in which case it will be easier to look at for most people.

Not too bad all in all.

I think you might have some problems with the video files, but we'll see.

Sometimes PDF documents don't like video files. It just happens sometimes, and there never seems to be a good reason.

Also, some people may not be able to view the videos due to their hardware. So, perhaps you could make a few different versions of the document.

I have dial up so videos are out of the question for me. I like Pictures, diagrams, drawings, etc...

Dont get me wrong, I fully support people from the forums making videos but I only watch them when I'm at my friends house (he as high speed internet)
