Hello, Just one question / Bonjour !

Hello, i'm sorry it's my firt post, and i ask for help, i'm sorry, and after this post, i will go to the prestentation topic.

I have only one question, I have read a lot of papers about lock picking and many topic of this forum, and i have used the search module of this forum but i couldn't find reponse for my question.

Then, I wanted to practice, but i didn't arrive to open it with my stuff.
Then, you can see one picture of the stuff that i have, i have try to use the two stick during a same time.. But it doesn't work, and i really don't know how to do. I have seen a video, one day ago, and the guy managed to do that really easy.

Thanks, a lot ! (sorry for my english if you don't understand, i'm French :b )

/// Translation in french

Bonjour, désolé pour mon premier post, je pose déjà une question, qui je pense doit être toute bête. J'ai cherché sur le forum, mais je n'ai rien trouvé qui aurait pu répondre à ma question, j'ai de même utilisé le module recherche, voila donc pourquoi je poste un nouveau topic.

Vous pouvez voir d'après la photo, la cadenas ainsi que deux épingles (pour les cheveux) et je n'arrive décidément pas à l'ouvrir. J'ai éssayé et pourtant j'ai vu une video il y a un jour, où la personne y arrivait très simplement, si vous auriez des infos, des papers, n'importe quoi qui pourrait m'aider.. merci d'avance !

yep the link worked fine for me. ok well im not sure how u managed to pick a lock at all with that! but good one you for doing it.

I recommend buying some picks. but if u must use hair pins the tension wrench looks like it might work ok with tension on the top. try pending the hairpin you will use as a pick at a 45° angle at its widest point. so instead of bending it down like u have bend it sideways. then use a hand file to fashion a hook, ive seen it done effectivly before.

All the best
