i have put together an unpicakable lock. i am looking at a way to sell it. i could use any ideas you have. it started when i saw my first lock bumping video. i thought there must be a way to prevent that and came up with a simple idea. no attaching any unsightly hardware to the inside door that you have to be inside to apply. this idea works inside or out. so any help will be appreciated.

Unpickable? By what/whose standards do you make that declaration? Who have you had test it? There are some people who can pick just about anything. What mechanisms do you employ to prevent picking? You mentioned that you came up with this after watching lock bumping videos. Do you mean unbumpable? This is not to say your lock is not unpickable, but it is quite a bold statement to come onto a lock picking forum and declare that your lock is unpickable. Gordon

if you don't want to talk about your idea in a public venue send me a pm, I would be interested in seeing what you came up with. Everyone else, thanks for the comments and drool

Yes, very nice cutaways!

Thanks somenewguy the Enviro lock was the easiest of the bunch, the S&G 8088 is my favorite to date (I think that's why I have 3 of them)

these are so awesome! i kinda wanna wait until i improve my picking skills before indulging myself, but i was trying to explain to my father how picking works the other night and was kicking myself for not having one. it's such a simple process but it's so difficult to explain to somebody that's never seen the inside of a lock before. my brother works in a machine shop, i wonder if he could have one of the guys to do something like this for me if i gave him a few pics...

Buddykiller, That's how I started making cutaways, just some pic's and a willingness to kill some locks  it helps when you understand the inner workings of a lock. I did up some of these the other day Schlage 6 pin (C keyway)If you are interested in one send me a PM  you cant see it in this pic but they are milled so you can see the shear line.
