C'mon guys lets not get hasty over a clarification being posted. Greyman's description just ensures that anyone who comes across this post in search of information on the lock is not confused. It ensures that someone walks away with correct information that has been posted by BOTH of you. Pickmachinist, your pictures are worth 1000 words and will help many in figuring out how the lock works. Greyman, your post clarifies the lock type and how it should be classified which is invaluable to a noob who may not have the knowledge that we do. The whole purpose of this site is to help each other and ensure proper information is exchanged. Bickering amongst each other accomplishes nothing constructive.

Hopefully the thread can continue now with no hard feelings between all of us as both Pickmachinist and Greyman have offered valuable information for this site which is the overall goal-growth of the site. Bickering between two great minds such as the two of you is just going to hinder future information shared between the two of you in your posts so let's please not let that happen. Forgive and forget is the best policy as it is very hard to interpret whether or not someone is being harsh in their words when they come in the form of typed text. I am sure Greyman had no intention of offending you with his post as I know Greyman pretty well and I can say that his intentions were intended to be good and not belittle anyone in any way.

My replies were written in a gentle, playful, and sarcastic voice and in no way were they intended to hurt anyone's feelings. I do apologize. Hug and a handshake.

Thanks for that pickmachinist. As I said, sarcasm etc is hard to pick up on sometimes in typed text form. I do thank you for clearing that up. It may have been that I was about to fall asleep when I read the post that I didnt pick up on the sarcasm :P .

I think Wendt or some other european lock tool company makes a pick tool for this lock. I think a picture of it was on BlackBag a year or two ago. Never bought one through LockMasters cos it was so expensive, like over a $1000.

Thanks for sorting that one out Zeke. Clarification is never a bad thing.

Lockmasters sells a TuBar pick tool? I've never seen one in their catalogs. Link?

Well LockMasters is Wendt's US distributor so most of whats on Wendt's site should be available through Lockmasters. I'm pretty sure cos I called them and asked how much they were selling the BMW 2-track decoding set that Barry Wells demonstrated on a Black Bag video and they said they could get it for me.
