Bogota Picking Techniques

Postby rerun » 5 Mar 2011 21:03

I apologize in advance if a similar thread has already been started. But here goes anyway....

I just got my Titan Bogotas in the mail today, and the craftsmanship is unbelievable. I've been able to open several locks using the "too much coffee" method I read about. My question is, what other techniques do you pros recommend for picking with a Bogota? I have a 5-pin Shclage that I just can't seem to open...any suggestions?


p.s. Thank you Rai for you hard work and amazing lock picks :D

SP picked in under a minute....guess I didn't want to wait that extra forty five seconds lol. I don't think I'll need any other lock picks ever again. Incredible.
