Great page. Helped me get a better feel for defeating spool pins on my Brinks Brass 40mm.

Thanks for the great share! :D

Yeah, I was doing this as well, but I think I have a little more detail in mine. I got about 2 pages done, then got busy doing other web stuff. This isn't even in a 'public' place yet, it's buried in a test folder.

However, I will be starting work again soon, which is where I do most of my web design (hey, I work in an office, I get bored...), so if anyone has any suggestions, please let me know.

JK, where did the plug for "exaggerated tolerance errors" come from?

Nice site by the way!

Thanks!

The exaggerated tolerance errors plug is just that Corbin-Russwin plug with a teeny bit of photoshopping.

For the best book out there on high security locks and their operation, take a look at amazon.com for High-Security Mechanical Locks An Encyclopedic Reference. Written by our very own site member Greyman! A true 5 Star read!!

Even for people having done it for a while, its good to review the basics. from time to time i forget the simple tips that make the entire process easier. Thanks!
