Hi there, I've got a little problem. I live in Europe, and all locks I've ever seen, have the pins on the bottom of the lock, not on the top like the locks in US. When I take a padlock for example, and turn it upside down, it's not a problem to know when a pin is set, becouse it falls down becouse of the gravity, not the spring. But a lock on a door? I can't turn it upside down, so the pins can't fall down when they're set. How the hell should I know when a pin is set? Im a beginner, but I've picked many locks yet. But I still don't know how, becouse when I'm gonna anger, I'm using raking and the lock finaly opens. Another problem are my picks. It's impossible to buy picks here, so I have to order them from US or GB, but that's really expensive for me. So I make my picks from various materials (wires, hand saws), they are really tiny and slim, but still I can't pick a lock without stress, becouse the pick allways jam inside the lock, or I'm unable to reach the most distant pin. We have a god
tiny locks.
