G'day, all! So, attempting to advance my skills. Last lock repeatably picked was an ACE 50mm. Not super hard, but challenging. I wanted to move up and purchased a Master 410 LOTO. I know this is obvious, but these things are really difficult. The bitting I have on this is no joke, either. Any advice for getting an open on this? Thanks! http://imgur.com/a/23gmEV1 [mod edit] https://i.imgur.com/2xiygDW.jpeg

Be ready for spool pins. Pay attention to your tension wrench. If you are lifting a pin and it tries to turn the tension wrench backwards, then you have a spool pin there.

Just when you finally think you have learned it all, that is when you learn that you don't know anything yet.

Thanks! Just not getting the feedback I expect and am having a hard time not oversetting that front pin. Hopefully will have some luck soon!
