I just couldnt be bothered with facebook or photobucket or any of that stuff and i only check my email about once a month.

Why is nothing in life just simple and straightforward they are even making locks harder to pick now.

I have somewhere in the region of 200 fichet locks most are safe locks like monopoles and cobras as i call them and a good few atm barrels...

Just lending dls a hand... here are some photos of a small part of his Fichet collection:

Thats about 1/4 of the fichet stuff i have the same again for chubb tann kromer etc never mind combo locks
and timelocks some will be reused again but most will be used as donors or to develop picking methods and
tools.

Hello everyone,
The fichet F3D seems to be a great lock ! I live in Paris and I'm looking for one.
Bad luck, I ony find somes second hand ones around 250-300 euros on the french website "leboncoin" ... still too expensive for me : i'll wait some years. If you are richer than me and wants me to translate your email to the seller, do not hesitate to contact me. (My french is better than my english
Enjoy mechanisms,
Alex

After the presentation at LockCon #04, I have now uploaded the full paper about the F3D to http://toool.nl/ (at the very bottom of the page).

Enjoy!

Cheers

Crikey its more complex than i imagined.

Why is it that crazy high security locks like this never make it over to the US? Are we just lacking in imagination or simply too cheap to pay for them ?

[averagejoe]

Umm, I think i remember reading somewhere, possibly on this thread, that newer models go for like $700 new or somesuch. Since they are of such high quality they are rarely replaced so the used market is quite non existant

Nice animation, but it does not show the sliders moving as I think they would. The tumbler wheels rotate, making the sliders shift position. When all the sliders are in the correct location, the key can be turned.
