Well i got my pick set and bought a kwikset deadbolt, picked it many times, even took it apart and switched the pins up at least 25 times , successfully picked it over and over each time. Now what lock do you suggest i pick? thanks
After you get good at the Kwikset (which it sounds like you have) i'd upgrade to a schlage or a brinks. They are both fairly challenging for beginners and they are good to learn spools on. The 2 inch brass brinks padlock has two spools and the schlage either has two or none. I'd get one of those locks and give it a shot. If you are having trouble with a schlage, you can always shim it and take a few pins out but with the brinks its one arrangement goes (unless you buy the expensive one).
Ya i just went down to westlake ACE hardware and picked up a dead bolt that is "anti-pick" has two spool pins .... so i raked it two times bam it opened, and i took out the spools looked at them .. then put one in , picked it .. felt what its like to pick it , then put in two , same deal , then finaly i put in one regular pin and two spools , it just became harder so imma practice with this for a while and eventualy move up to 3 regular pins and 2 spools.
