I DID IT!
I polished my picks and it made a world of a difference. They were smooth and pushed pins brilliantly i recommend polishing to everybody that has a manufactured set

Try using an offset or deforest diamond and try picking it in the other direction.

I had lock like that one. I could not open it. I finally figured out my bottom tension was causing the problem. I used tok and open it. I then went back and studied the cylinder. I made a bok tension wrench with a knotch filed out and opened it several more times.

Thanks

i can tell by looking at your key and pick set that you dont have an reach tool and by looking at the key i think the shaft of your pick is giving you an overset problem peterson lets you buy lock picks one or two at a time so go and get you a reach tool and give the lock a try you will thank me later just dont get mad at me for the 8.95 shipping charge peterson charges he is on of the highest but he also has the best specialty picks.
