May never use it, better to have and not need than to need and not have. Looking for lock now to Practice With.
Couldn't find a Video of a Tibbe being picked prior to this tool, was thinking of a tool that has the tensioning tip with a slot running down the side, then a wire that slides down the slot with an L at the end that could slide in and out to turn each individually. May go to making it once I get a Lock.
Thanks for the Info.

Will pay for it, prefer an 8 cut.
Ran into a Tibbe Pick on Banggood, it's called "Magic",
Went on YouTube. Works, Don't believe All the Time.
Then saw a Tibbe Pick/Decoder with a Slot down the side, like what I Imagined, Decodes also. Much better than what I had in Mind, mine would only Pick?

The magic key is a soft metal alloy that gets deformed when using so it can make a key. Therefore it is a one-time use tool.

Just found that 8 cut lock. Shoot me a PM with your mailing info, Stratmando. The 8 cut Tibbe was only used on Jaguar vehicles, and after a few years Jaguar changed to the 6 cut Tibbe as well.

Thanks, done, the Magic is interesting.
I wonder if a hard sponge material was embedded is a Key if it would work. Or a Stiffer Memory Foam could work.
Or a Memory Metal could be used for the Magic, then just heat to get back in shape and Eeuse?
Thanks again.
Take Care
