The old EVVA MCS uses this, too - with balls of 2 different sizes, and if you have a key with a dimple where there shouldn't be one - i.e. where they have placed a small ball - plop - caught - no way to remove that key...

read it and it will explain schalges reasoning....

but asides this it does provid extra security to the lock



Correct a falle pick to open the check pin works great. Zeke79 has an awesome video on it.

Wow, nice lock mod.
I think it fun to pick and design while drinking, maybe not drunk. Obviously shouldn't make a mod with tools while drinking but I am sure some crazy designs could be thought of while doing that.

Where I live doesn't really have any cool bars or pubs to where you could just sit in a corning and have some fun so we have to choose someone place and then rotate.

Hey Schuyler, I think Lockwood has already done something very similar to your check pin modification - I believe it was called the "Lockwood 7" and there was a check pin right at the back acting at right angles to the other 6 pins. There's some more detail on this in my book.

Nice job though :)
