30C Payphone locks

Postby 20incher » 20 Aug 2021 17:22

I'm no expert but definitely not a beginner. I re-registered on Lock picking 101 as I forgot my name and login. I've picked 4 pin biaxial medico side bar, American and Abus locks with no problem. Recently my interest is the Payphone 30C because I have been given the opportunity. Not sure if fellow lockpickers know of James Clark The payphone bandit, Very interesting and good read. Anybody know what tool he used or his technique? I've been looking on Youtube and online and there's not too much info. Any help is appreciated.

Here we go. Trouble maker for no reason. Pay phones don't even exist anymore dickhead. You'd have a leg to stand on if we traveled to 1980. Seriously guy stop trolling for no reason accept to make trouble. This is the problem with youth theses days.

20incher:

1. Payphones do still exist and are used in some areas.
2. Do not call other people here names such as dickhead or anything derogatory or inflammatory.
3. YLF was not trolling or trouble-making. He is expressing what experience here has shown us to be something that may be questionable. Not for certain, but possible.
4. He is not as young as you seem to think.
5. Yes, a fair number of us are familiar with Jim Clark, along with one or two more from that era. A few of us even know what tool he used. We are far less likely to share the info with people who are visibly new to the site and are not being respectful of others.

YLF:

You might try phrasing your comment in the future in a way that indicates that the OP's area of inquiry may be used for nefarious means, and would he care to clarify why he needs the info.

Appreciated Gordon but as stated before people like to belittle people to make their “greatness” known .I’ve seen it on other sites plenty of times,Pack mentality. As stated before Youluckyfox ,If someone has nothing better to do as in belittle others to make themselves feel better or to up their post counts please don’t reply.If someone has any useful info please direct me in the right direction.I’ve been on this site years ago but really don’t care enough or energy to find my old user name and password.

And we have had times beyond counting when we are concerned about people being up to no good. A comment like YLF's is usually enough to let that kind of person know that our suspicions have been aroused and they don't bother coming back.

We may lose one or two people who had no malicious intentions, but we also lose literally hundreds of people who do.
